Make a list once and use it again. Organize packing, shopping and daily to-dos with nested items, your own templates and quick check resets. Core features are free; ad removal is a one-time purchase. ■ Organize items into lists and sublists Group items by category: Trip → Clothes → Shirts and socks. Parent and child items keep longer lists organized, and you can reorder items to suit your plans. ■ Reuse your lists Save a frequently used list as a template for your next shopping trip or vacation. Copy items or entire lists instead of entering everything again. ■ See what is left to do Checking a parent item also checks its children. Switch between To-Do and All to see the remaining items. Use Uncheck All to reset your list for next time. ■ Everyday conveniences Add items continuously, search your lists, and move or copy items. Use Dark Mode and a badge showing the number of unchecked items. Export lists to Notes, email or other apps to share them. ■ Remove ads with a one-time purchase Core features are free. Premium removes ads with a one-time purchase, not a subscription. After changing devices, use Restore Purchases with the Apple Account used for your purchase. Make everyday preparation a little easier.

Build a template once, then reuse it any time. Organize your life and work with a clear hierarchy of Spaces, folders, lists, and elements. Group projects, departments, or life areas into spaces, structure them with folders, and break work down into items you check off, notes, and reminders so nothing is forgotten. Need a checklist fast?

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: CheckLoop at none against Checklist's shown. CheckLoop also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and device support (3 vs 1). Checklist's advantage is ratings volume (2.9K vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Checklist sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and CheckLoop sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
CheckLoop holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Checklist has 2.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Checklist ships an update every 9 days, CheckLoop weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
