# Weekly Planner vs Digital Planner for iPad

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Weekly Planner at 90% against Digital Planner for iPad's 44%. Weekly Planner also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and rating (4.8 vs 4.3). Digital Planner for iPad's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 397). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Weekly Planner sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Digital Planner for iPad sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
