Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Goalday at 4.6 against A Basic Girls Guide's 3.7. Goalday also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). A Basic Girls Guide's advantage is review sentiment (81% vs 72%) and iOS requirement (14.2 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. A Basic Girls Guide sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.49 per month and Goalday sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Goalday holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Goalday has 27 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of A Basic Girls Guide's written reviews are positive against 72% of Goalday's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

A Basic Girls Guide ships an update every 2 months, Goalday every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
