CheckPad

What matters most is how it feels — just like a real memo pad. CheckPad is a checklist app that feels like writing on a grid memo pad. Packing, shopping, last checks before you head out. Open the cover, write, check things off, and tear the page away when you're done. All the satisfaction of a paper pad, right in your hand. - Just like a real memo pad • Grid paper texture, light on the cover, and paper that shows its use. • Flip pages up to move between lists. • Tear off a page along the perforation when you're done. Torn pages are kept in "Torn Pages," so you can look back or use them again. • When you open the app, the cover opens. • Pages flipping, the cover opening, check marks, pages tearing, sticky notes — all kept soft. • You can turn animations and sounds off in Settings. - Write and check • One checklist per page — just add a title and items. • Tap an item to check it. Uncheck everything to use a list again. • Use Edit to rewrite or reorder items. • Share any list as text. • A short tutorial lets you try each step the first time you open the app. Open How to Use in Settings any time. - Sticky notes • Give each list a sticky note in one of 10 colors. • Write a label of up to 3 characters on a sticky note. The first character shows from other pages. • Notes peek out from the right edge of the pad — tap one to flip to that list. Tap the right edge to stick one at that height. - Start from an example • Get going quickly with examples like Commute, Travel Packing, Weekend Shopping, Gym Bag, and Camping Gear.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GoalWall at none against CheckPad's 4. CheckPad's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
