Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Checklist at Free against Lists To's $0.99. Checklist also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). Lists To's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (84% vs 68%). On ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Checklist is free to download; Lists To costs $0.99 up front. Checklist sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Lists To sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Checklist holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2.9K and 2K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of Checklist's written reviews are positive against 84% of Lists To's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Checklist ships an update every 11 days, Lists To every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
