# SimpleLists vs Funnel

The clearest difference is price: Funnel at Free against SimpleLists's $0.99. Funnel also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 23 months) and ratings volume (43 vs 1). SimpleLists's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Funnel is free to download; SimpleLists costs $0.99 up front. Funnel sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. SimpleLists asks for nothing beyond the download.

SimpleLists holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Funnel has 43 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of SimpleLists's written reviews are positive against 80% of Funnel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

SimpleLists ships an update every 23 months, Funnel every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
