Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Sched at 4.8 against Yapp's 3.6. Sched also leads on ratings volume (4.2K vs 100). Yapp's advantage is review sentiment (56% vs 18%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Sched holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sched has 4.2K ratings behind it against 100, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Yapp's written reviews are positive against 18% of Sched's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Yapp ships an update fortnightly, Sched every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 19, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
