# Feed Planner vs Reels

The clearest difference is monetization model: Feed Planner at free with in-app purchases against Reels's subscription. Feed Planner also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (64% vs 42%). Reels's advantage is ratings volume (1.6K vs 43). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Feed Planner sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Reels sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Feed Planner against 4.7 for Reels. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reels has 1.6K ratings behind it against 43, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 64% of Feed Planner's written reviews are positive against 42% of Reels's.

Feed Planner ships an update monthly, Reels every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
