Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Easlo Journal at 67% against 1 good thing's 33%. Easlo Journal also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium). 1 good thing's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly) and rating (4.8 vs 4.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support 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. Easlo Journal sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and 1 good thing sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
1 good thing holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 1 good thing has 25 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Easlo Journal's written reviews are positive against 33% of 1 good thing's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Easlo Journal ships an update fortnightly, 1 good thing every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 26, 2026 respectively.
