# 爱时间 vs Thiro

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.

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.
