# To Do List vs Fast Lists Sync

The clearest difference is rating: Fast Lists Sync at 4.7 against To Do List's 3.0. Fast Lists Sync also leads on ratings volume (13 vs 4) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. To Do List sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Fast Lists Sync sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Fast Lists Sync holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 4 and 13 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of To Do List's written reviews are positive against 50% of Fast Lists Sync's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

To Do List ships an update monthly, Fast Lists Sync every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
