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. Taskio sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Nirvana for GTD sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Taskio holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nirvana for GTD has 285 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Taskio's written reviews are positive against 75% of Nirvana for GTD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Taskio ships an update every 5 weeks, Nirvana for GTD every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 23, 2026.
