# MeisterTask vs Actions

The clearest difference is monetization model: MeisterTask at freemium against Actions's subscription. MeisterTask also leads on review sentiment (83% vs 52%). Actions's advantage is ratings volume (9.8K vs 1.8K) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MeisterTask sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $16.00 per month and Actions sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for MeisterTask against 4.6 for Actions. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Actions has 9.8K ratings behind it against 1.8K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 83% of MeisterTask's written reviews are positive against 52% of Actions's.

MeisterTask ships an update every 3 weeks, Actions fortnightly. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
