Where did your time go today? Time Manage is the simplest way to answer that question. It works with just two taps: start to begin timing, stop when you're done. Study, work, workouts—track any activity the moment you start it. Unlike full-blown time-tracking tools, there are no projects to configure and no mandatory setup. When you save, just pick a tag like Study, Work, or Workout—your last tag is already selected, so repeating an activity is a single tap. Tags are always optional; Time Manage does the rest. SEE WHERE YOUR TIME GOES - A pie chart breaks your time down by tag, so you finally know how you spend your days - A daily bar chart shows how your hours stack up, tag by tag - Check today's total and your all-time total at a glance BUILD A DAILY HABIT - A streak counter shows how many days in a row you've tracked—keep it alive! - A Home Screen widget puts today's total and your current streak right where you'll see them - While the timer runs, your elapsed time appears live on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island (Live Activity)—no need to open the app - An optional, gentle evening reminder only when your streak is about to break - Set a daily goal and the widget, Lock Screen, and notifications all show how much is left (entirely optional) - Catch a timer you forgot to stop: when a session runs far longer than usual, one tap trims it to your typical length SIMPLE AND YOURS - Fully offline and private—no account, no sign-up - Multiple color themes with matching app icons Perfect for studying, deep work, focus sessions, workouts, and building better habits one day at a time. Track your time. See your day. Keep your streak going with Time Manage.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Time Manage at 5.0 against Focusi's 4.4. Time Manage also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Focusi's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Time Manage holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Focusi has 14 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Time Manage's written reviews are positive against 61% of Focusi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Time Manage ships an update every 4 days, Focusi every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on August 25, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
