# 时光日记 vs 时间朋友

时光日记 and 时间朋友 both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of 时间朋友's written reviews are positive against 88% of 时光日记's. 时光日记's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 2). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 时光日记 sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and 时间朋友 sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for 时光日记 against 4.5 for 时间朋友. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 时光日记 has 11 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 88% of 时光日记's written reviews are positive against 100% of 时间朋友's.

时光日记 ships an update monthly, 时间朋友 every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
