Both are free to download. Lock Screen Calendar sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month and AnyPlanner sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Lock Screen Calendar holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lock Screen Calendar has 19 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Lock Screen Calendar's written reviews are positive against 90% of AnyPlanner'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 5 days. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
