Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Little Things at 5.0 against Life Calendar's 3.8. Little Things also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). Life Calendar's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
