Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Routine Reminder at 5.0 against My Message's 4.3. My Message's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (daily vs every 10 days). 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. Routine Reminder sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. My Message asks for nothing beyond the download.
Routine Reminder holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: My Message has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of My Message's written reviews are positive against 75% of Routine Reminder's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
My Message ships an update daily, Routine Reminder every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 5, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
