Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Checklist Inspector Pro at 5.0 against Site Diary's 4.4. Site Diary's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 50%) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Checklist Inspector Pro sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.95 per month. Site Diary asks for nothing beyond the download.
Checklist Inspector Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Site Diary has 45 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Site Diary's written reviews are positive against 50% of Checklist Inspector Pro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Site Diary ships an update weekly, Checklist Inspector Pro fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
