# Checklist vs Plans

The clearest difference is rating: Plans at 5.0 against Checklist's 4.2. Checklist's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (10 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Checklist sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per year and Plans sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Plans holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Checklist has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Checklist ships an update every 5 days, Plans every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
