Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: QuickList at 100% against Trello's 53%. QuickList also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). Trello's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QuickList sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Trello asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Trello holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Trello has 7K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Trello's written reviews are positive against 100% of QuickList's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Trello ships an update every 2 weeks, QuickList every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
