Minpick
Read full descriptionHide full description
You had five minutes. You had things to do. But the five minutes disappeared while you were deciding what to start. Then another small pocket of time came, and choosing still took longer than starting. It was not because there was nothing to do. There was too much to choose from. I used to be there too. That is why I made Minpickβnot to make you work harder, but to shorten the part where you have to decide. Save something you want to do later and roughly how many minutes it takes. When you have 3 minutes, choose 3. When you have 5, choose 5. When you have 10, choose 10. Minpick shows up to three tasks that should fit. You do not have to scan a long to-do list again. If you want to narrow things down, use category or priorityβfor example, only work, or only tasks with medium or high priority. You can choose a time from the Home Screen widget. If a nudge helps, set a reminder for a day and time. You can switch languages in the app, and VoiceOver and Dynamic Type are supported. If you want to stop, stop. If today is a day to rest, rest. You do not have to turn every free minute into output, and you do not have to open Minpick every time. Next time a few minutes open up and you have things to do but cannot decide what to start, open Minpick then. I did not make it to push you harder. I made it to make that deciding moment a little shorter. You still choose. No account is required. Your saved tasks stay on your device. There are no ads, subscriptions, or in-app purchases.

Countpad is a small, fast inventory tracker for people who just need the numbers to be right. Open it, add your items, and count. Tap + or β straight from the list, or tap the number to type it in when there are 143 of something. That is the whole idea. WHAT IT DOES β’ Count from the list β increase or decrease without opening a detail screen β’ Type a quantity directly when tapping would be slower β’ Scan a barcode to jump to an item, or to create one with the barcode attached β’ Search instantly across name, barcode, category and unit β’ Filter by category, or by what is in stock and what has run out β’ Create a report in one tap β a clean PDF and a CSV, ready to share or print β’ Back up everything to one portable file, and restore it later β’ Add a photo when two items look alike, and a unit cost when you want the report to total it COUNT TOGETHER (OPTIONAL) Shared inventory lets several people count one stock list at the same time, each on their own phone, with every change appearing on everyone else's screen. Two people counting the same shelf add up β the app never lets one person's count overwrite another's. A shared inventory is always live, so it needs a connection β your own inventory keeps working offline. WORKS WITHOUT A CONNECTION Counting, search, filters, reports, export and backup all work in airplane mode, in a stockroom with no signal, in a basement. Your inventory stays on your device unless you choose to share it β and if you do, it goes to your shared inventory and nowhere else. NO ACCOUNT NEEDED No sign-up, no email, no password. Open the app and start counting. An account is only ever created if you switch on the shared inventory, and you can delete it from inside the app. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://gist.github.com/hjatupon/21ebe78638c416a5373e3b1a766eb433

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Countpad at Free against Minpick's $0.29. Countpad also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). Minpick's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
