Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: MySequence at 4.1 against iAttended's 1.8. MySequence also leads on ratings volume (107 vs 19). iAttended's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 months) and review sentiment (30% vs 9%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MySequence holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 1.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MySequence has 107 ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 9% of MySequence's written reviews are positive against 30% of iAttended's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MySequence ships an update every 6 months, iAttended every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
