Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: TimeAide™ Mobile at 2.6 against Mi LUMA's 2.1. TimeAide™ Mobile also leads on iOS requirement (9.3 vs 13.0). Mi LUMA's advantage is ratings volume (936 vs 18) and review sentiment (11% vs 0%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

TimeAide™ Mobile holds the better App Store score, 2.6 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mi LUMA has 936 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of TimeAide™ Mobile's written reviews are positive against 11% of Mi LUMA's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
