# DoNext vs Outliner

The clearest difference is rating: Outliner at 4.7 against DoNext's 4.1. Outliner also leads on ratings volume (66 vs 11) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DoNext sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Outliner sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Outliner holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Outliner has 66 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 70% of DoNext's written reviews are positive against 77% of Outliner's.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
