# GoTodo vs Shasks

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Shasks at none against GoTodo's 4. Shasks also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). GoTodo's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 1) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GoTodo sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Shasks asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for GoTodo against 5.0 for Shasks. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GoTodo has 17 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

GoTodo ships an update every 3 weeks, Shasks every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
