Remember everything you have done so far or what you have to do in the future. Recorda reinvents and merges your personal diary, your to-do list, your notes and reminders in a single app. It allows you to quickly, easily and intuitively write down what comes to your mind. From your day to day to what you have to do in a week, a month or a year. Use it as it suits you, maybe even as your shopping list. Some of the things you can do with the Recorda app are: • Create multiple lists, in case you want to organize what you write down in different topics (your personal life, business or shopping list, among others). • Create unlimited memories of past, future or undated dates. Either something you have done or anything you have to do. It may even be something you don't know when to do. • Attach images, voice memos and tags to your memories to see them again at any time. • Mark your memories as favorites to highlight those events that have impacted you the most or to not forget something very important that you have to do in the future. • Set your memories as pending and completed to know if it is something you have already done or something you have yet to do that you don’t want to forget. • Duplicate what you have noted to facilitate the entry of those events that are repetitive. • Visualize in a clear and intuitive way in timeline format with our own taste everything you have written down over time. And this is just the beginning, as we're working on a ton of other mind-blowing features. Do you remember what you did on the last month’s Saturday or what you have to do next Friday? With Recorda you will never forget again. For technical assistance and suggestions, email: hello@bocadil.com

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Recorda at none against Timeline's 3. Recorda also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). Timeline's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 11) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Timeline sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Recorda asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Timeline holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timeline has 1.2K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 66% of Timeline's written reviews are positive against 73% of Recorda's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Timeline ships an update monthly, Recorda every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
