Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: SumsApp at Free against ToDoList's $0.99. SumsApp also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.0) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). ToDoList's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 64%) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). On device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SumsApp holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SumsApp has 177 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of SumsApp's written reviews are positive against 100% of ToDoList's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SumsApp ships an update every 2 weeks, ToDoList every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
