Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. WorkTime sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Fire Shift Calendar sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Fire Shift Calendar holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WorkTime has 4.7K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of WorkTime's written reviews are positive against 0% of Fire Shift Calendar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
WorkTime ships an update every 3 weeks, Fire Shift Calendar fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and June 3, 2026 respectively.
