# Productive vs Do Habits

The clearest difference is rating: Productive at 4.6 against Do Habits's 4.0. Productive also leads on review sentiment (47% vs 31%) and ratings volume (91K vs 17K). Do Habits's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Productive sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 3 months and Do Habits sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Productive holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Productive has 91K ratings behind it against 17K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 47% of Productive's written reviews are positive against 31% of Do Habits's.

Productive ships an update fortnightly, Do Habits every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on September 24, 2026.
