Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Beesy at none against Planner Pro's shown. Beesy also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). Planner Pro's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 64) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Beesy sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Planner Pro sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
