SubTasks is free to start, built by a small independent team, and syncs across your phone, tablet and the web. TASKS AND RULES - Assign daily, weekly and one-off tasks with due dates and point values - Break a bigger goal into steps with challenges - Send a lightning task with a countdown when you want an answer today - Ask for a note or photo proof before a task counts, then approve it or send it back with a rating and a comment - Keep your rules, limits and protocols in shared Notes, and write down Agreements you both sign - Push reminders when something is assigned or due REWARDS, PUNISHMENTS AND FOLLOW THROUGH - Choose the rewards and punishments and set what they cost - Points for finished tasks, streaks for consistency, achievements along the way - Missed tasks earn demerits, and redemption tasks put things right - See how your partner is doing without asking LONG DISTANCE - Tasks, reminders and approvals reach your partner wherever they are - Pro adds in-app chat next to the task it is about SOLO - Solo mode is free.

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: SubTasks at free with in-app purchases against Obedience's subscription. SubTasks also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 76%). Obedience's advantage is ratings volume (3K vs 40) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, update cadence and ads 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. Obedience sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and SubTasks sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
SubTasks holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Obedience has 3K ratings behind it against 40, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 76% of Obedience's written reviews are positive against 100% of SubTasks's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 21, 2026 respectively.
