Daily Check Widget
Read full descriptionHide full description
Daily Check is a checklist that lives on your Home Screen and empties itself every night. Make a list of the things you want to do each day — a morning routine, studio work, training, medication, whatever repeats. Add the Daily Check widget, and tick items off by tapping them directly on the Home Screen. The app never has to open. At midnight everything unchecks and a fresh day begins. Nothing is deleted: every day you complete is kept, so you can look back and watch your streak grow. WIDGETS THAT ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING Small, medium and large Home Screen widgets show your list as coloured rows. Tap a row to check it off. No launching, no loading, no waiting. BUILT FOR MORE THAN ONE LIST Keep separate lists for separate parts of your life, each with its own icon and colour, and give every item its own colour so you can read the list at a glance. ON YOUR WRIST A full Apple Watch app plus complications for your watch face, so you can see what is left without reaching for your phone. HISTORY AND STREAKS Every completed day is recorded. See your current streak, your best streak, and a calendar of the last four months. RESETS WHEN YOU DO If your day really ends at 3am, set the reset hour to match. The list will not clear until you are actually done. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-up. No tracking. Your lists sync across your devices through your own iCloud account, and nobody else — including us — can read them. DAILY CHECK PRO (OPTIONAL) Upgrade for Insights charts, achievements, smart reminders, streak-saving rest days, ready-made routines, pill styles, widget themes, extra widgets, colours, icons, alternate app icons and CSV export. Choose yearly (with a one-week free trial), monthly, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://www.oanarinaldi.com/dailycheckprivacy.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Daily Check Widget at none against Daily Planner's 2. Daily Check Widget also leads on ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). Daily Planner's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 weeks). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
