# Smart Timetable vs Homework Tracker

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Smart Timetable at 3.4K against Homework Tracker's 223. Smart Timetable also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 70%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Smart Timetable sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Homework Tracker sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. 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 Smart Timetable against 4.7 for Homework Tracker. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Smart Timetable has 3.4K ratings behind it against 223, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 80% of Smart Timetable's written reviews are positive against 70% of Homework Tracker's.

Smart Timetable ships an update weekly, Homework Tracker fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
