Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Restaurant365 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Restaurant365 has 44K ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Restaurant365's written reviews are positive against 36% of Schedulefly's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Restaurant365 ships an update every 2 weeks, Schedulefly every 26 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and August 31, 2026 respectively.
