Opus One is a real day planner, not another to-do app. Each day gets its own page — tasks with A/B/C priorities, your schedule, and notes — on a planner that looks and feels like paper. Plan on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and it all stays in sync. YOUR DAY ON ONE PAGE • Daily Tasks with A/B/C priorities, status, notes, and alarms. • A schedule that shows your Calendar events alongside your tasks. • Drag a task onto the schedule — with task durations, the end time fills in automatically. • Daily Notes with photos, PDFs, checklists, and audio. • Today's weather and a daily quote, right on the page. PLAN BEYOND TODAY • Master Tasks: everything on your mind in one list, no due date required. • Goals with timelines, photos, and progress you can see. • Roles: review the areas of your life each week so nothing important gets crowded out. • Mission, Values, and Vision pages to keep the big picture one tap away. • Meeting Planner for agendas, decisions, and next steps. NOTES AND JOURNALS • Rich notes with fonts, colors, tags, and your own custom sections. • Sketch and handwrite with Apple Pencil. • Journals with 25 covers to choose from, plus a guided Gratitude Journal. IT GOES WHERE YOU GO • Home Screen widgets for today's tasks, your mission, your values, and daily quotes. • Live Activities keep today's tasks on your Lock Screen. • Add a task from Control Center, or ask Siri. • Apple Watch app to see your day and check off tasks from your wrist. • iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. MAKE IT YOURS • Planner themes, including seasonal ones. • Task-complete sounds and rewards for finishing what you planned. • Color-coded categories and repeating rules with advanced options.

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Planner Pro at free with in-app purchases against Opus One's subscription. Planner Pro also leads on ratings volume (13K vs 984) and review sentiment (76% vs 66%). Opus One's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support 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. Planner Pro sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Opus One sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Opus One holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Planner Pro has 13K ratings behind it against 984, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of Planner Pro's written reviews are positive against 66% of Opus One's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
