# Timemator vs GRIT

The clearest difference is review sentiment: GRIT at 100% against Timemator's 63%. GRIT also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Timemator's advantage is ratings volume (172 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Timemator sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and GRIT sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GRIT holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timemator has 172 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 63% of Timemator's written reviews are positive against 100% of GRIT's.

Timemator ships an update every 2 months, GRIT every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
