# Taskboard vs Task Flow

The clearest difference is rating: Task Flow at 4.6 against Taskboard's 4.2. Task Flow also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (342 vs 46). Taskboard's advantage is review sentiment (87% vs 76%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Taskboard sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Task Flow sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Task Flow holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Task Flow has 342 ratings behind it against 46, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of Taskboard's written reviews are positive against 76% of Task Flow's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Taskboard ships an update every 2 months, Task Flow every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
