# Time Tracker vs Stopwatch°

The clearest difference is rating: Stopwatch° at 4.8 against Time Tracker's 4.2. Stopwatch° also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). Time Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Time Tracker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Stopwatch° asks for nothing beyond the download.

Stopwatch° holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stopwatch° has 324 ratings behind it against 23, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Time Tracker's written reviews are positive against 98% of Stopwatch°'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Time Tracker ships an update every 3 days, Stopwatch° every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
