Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Roubit at none against InstantTODO's shown. Roubit also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (421 vs 8). InstantTODO's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.7). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Roubit sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $7.49 per month and InstantTODO sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

InstantTODO holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Roubit has 421 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Roubit's written reviews are positive against 78% of InstantTODO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Roubit ships an update every 9 days, InstantTODO every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
