Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Party_Planner at 100% against Checklist+'s 50%. Party_Planner also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Checklist+'s advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (7.9K vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Checklist+ sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Party_Planner sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Checklist+ holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Checklist+ has 7.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Checklist+'s written reviews are positive against 100% of Party_Planner's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Checklist+ ships an update every 5 weeks, Party_Planner every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 29, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
