时间记录的意义，根本不是 “逼自己不停做事”。 时间记录真正的作用是： 看清：你每天的时间到底花在哪了 发现：你以为在努力，其实一直在内耗、瞎忙、刷手机 调整：主动取舍，把更多时间，留给真正在意的事 它是镜子，不是鞭子。 这款应用，已经陪伴大家近十年。最开始，只是我自己用来记录时间、避免虚度的自用工具。慢慢打磨优化，现在，希望能帮每一个想要好好生活的人。 真正的时间管理，不是强行约束自己，核心就三件事：记录时间、分析时间、调整时间分配。 爱时间所有功能，都围绕这三件事设计： 一键打点、时间轴记录，随手就能记，不麻烦； 数据统计、图表分析，一目了然看清时间去向； 计划管理、目标打卡，轻松调整日常安排； 不用强行自律，不用硬逼自己。记录简单一点，分类少一点，如实看待自己的每一天。 不内卷、不焦虑，不和自己对抗。只用简单的记录和复盘，慢慢改掉无序的习惯，减少内耗，踏实成长。 十年用心打磨，功能持续更新。希望爱时间，可以安静陪伴你，合理用好每一天的时间，慢慢变成更好的自己。 爱时间会员自动续费服务说明 【订阅周期】 连续包年（1年） 【订阅价格】 连续包年会员自动续费为38元/年 【付款】 付款将在确认购买时向 iTunes账户收取。 【自动续订】 在当前订阅周期到期前24小从你的iTunes账户收取续订费用，扣费成功后顺延一个订阅周期。 【取消自动续订】 如需取消订阅，请手动代打开iOS的"设置"-->点击" Apple ID"，选择查看 "Apple ID"，进入账户设置页面点击"订阅"，取消订阅即可。如未在订阅周期结束的至少24小时前关闭订阅，此订阅将会自动续订。 【会员服务协议】 https://xrc.xianbeikeji.com/xiaorichangvip.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Thiro at none against 爱时间's shown. Thiro also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and device support (5 vs 3). 爱时间's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 weeks) and review sentiment (95% vs 83%). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. 爱时间 sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Thiro sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Thiro holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 33 and 50 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of 爱时间's written reviews are positive against 83% of Thiro's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
爱时间 ships an update weekly, Thiro every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
