# Safety Plan vs Mission

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Safety Plan at none against Mission's 1. Safety Plan also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (23 vs 2). Mission's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 22 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mission sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $5.00 per month. Safety Plan asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Safety Plan against 5.0 for Mission. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Safety Plan has 23 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Safety Plan ships an update every 22 months, Mission every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
