# Progress Checker vs Progress Bar Calendar

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Progress Checker at none against Progress Bar Calendar's 1. Progress Checker also leads on review sentiment (25% vs 0%) and ratings volume (4 vs 1). Progress Bar Calendar's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (2.0 vs 1.8). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Progress Bar Calendar sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per year. Progress Checker asks for nothing beyond the download.

Progress Bar Calendar holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 1 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Progress Checker's written reviews are positive against 0% of Progress Bar Calendar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
