Both are free to download. TablePlus sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Schema sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for TablePlus against 4.3 for Schema. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TablePlus has 77 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 77% of TablePlus's written reviews are positive against 62% of Schema's.
TablePlus ships an update weekly, Schema every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 10, 2026 respectively.
