Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Checklist at 4.7 against Checklist's 3.6. Checklist also leads on review sentiment (68% vs 48%) and ratings volume (2.9K vs 104). Checklist's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 9 days). On price, 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 Checklist sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
