# Checklist vs CheckDo

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CheckDo at 100% against Checklist's 48%. CheckDo also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.6) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). Checklist's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (104 vs 8). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Checklist sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. CheckDo asks for nothing beyond the download.
