# RoutineFlow vs Little Planner

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Little Planner at 100% against RoutineFlow's 61%. Little Planner also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.7). RoutineFlow's advantage is ratings volume (2.5K vs 14) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RoutineFlow sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and Little Planner sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Little Planner holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RoutineFlow has 2.5K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 61% of RoutineFlow's written reviews are positive against 100% of Little Planner's.

RoutineFlow ships an update every 5 days, Little Planner every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
