CheckMate is an RPG habit tracker. Your habits become daily quests, and every check-in earns XP and trains your character. Miss a day and nothing breaks: your stats stay where they are. YOUR HABITS TRAIN SIX STATS Strength, Vitality, Craft, Intellect, Wisdom and Charisma. A workout raises Strength. Reading raises Intellect. Each quest trains up to two stats, and raids train them too. A CLASS, TITLES AND FRAMES Your two strongest stats give you a class, like Druid or Bard. Each stat unlocks a title at levels 5, 10, 15 and 20, and a frame at level 10. Rest days never lower them. EVERY MONDAY, YOUR WEEK ON A SCROLL A sealed scroll shows which stats grew last week, with a note from Misa and a way to train the stat that rested. RAIDS WITH FRIENDS Each raid has one clear daily goal, like 10,000 steps or 6 glasses of water. In a Raid Boss, every check-in hits the boss. In a Grove, your party grows a tree from a seed. In Tug of War, two teams of friends pull against each other. Join an official raid, find an open one on the Notice Board in your language, or start a private one. FOCUS TOGETHER Set a focus timer alone or with up to four others: friends join with a code, strangers through Quick Join. Pick 5 to 90 minutes, play rain, crickets, a fireplace, the ocean or a forest, and earn XP for every round you finish. A MOOD JOURNAL THAT SPOTS PATTERNS Log your mood, sleep, energy, stress and what you did. Trends shows what your good days have in common, and the year view colors every day by mood. Lock it with a PIN and open it with Face ID or Touch ID. Keep it on your phone, or back it up to the cloud. REST IS PART OF THE PLAN Your days shown up never go down, and there's no HP to lose. A raid boss heals a little overnight instead of hurting your party. TWO CATS FOR COMPANY Misa and Putica show you around. If you want, they send a short note now and then, at the times you pick. EMBERS Earn Embers by leveling up, earning badges and finishing raids. Spend them to make a quest rare, epic or legendary. Embers can't be bought. IN 7 LANGUAGES English, Spanish, German, Portuguese (Brazil), French, Italian and Polish. Sign in with Apple, Google or email. WHAT IT COSTS Your first few days are fully open: every feature, no paywall, no card. The app shows the date and time they end. After that, CheckMate Pro: subscribe and start with a free trial, or pay once for lifetime access. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel them in your Apple Account settings. Made for brains that need a push, and for anyone with a graveyard of abandoned habit apps behind them.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MPF Gold at none against CheckMate's 7. MPF Gold also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
