Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Year Progress at none against Pattrn's shown. Year Progress also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Pattrn's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Pattrn sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Year Progress sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Year Progress holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pattrn has 1.1K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 14, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
