Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pagan Almanac at 4.7 against Planetary Magick's 4.2. Pagan Almanac also leads on ratings volume (174 vs 18) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Planetary Magick's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 71%) and iOS requirement (15.4 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pagan Almanac sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Planetary Magick sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Pagan Almanac holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pagan Almanac has 174 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Pagan Almanac's written reviews are positive against 88% of Planetary Magick's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pagan Almanac ships an update every 3 weeks, Planetary Magick every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
