ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

TimeAide™ Mobile holds the better App Store score, 2.6 against 1.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 18 and 72 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of TimeAide™ Mobile's written reviews are positive against 6% of YI Smart's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
