# Checklists App vs Do! Premium

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Do! Premium at 74% against Checklists App's 22%. Do! Premium also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (238 vs 1). Checklists App's advantage is price ($0.99 vs $20.00) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads there is nothing between them.

Checklists App costs $0.99 and Do! Premium $20.00 up front. Do! Premium sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Checklists App asks for nothing beyond the download.

Checklists App holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Do! Premium has 238 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Checklists App's written reviews are positive against 74% of Do! Premium's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Checklists App ships an update every 10 months, Do! Premium every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 26, 2026 respectively.
