I love tracking time with Toggl! I also love to set weekly and monthly goals for important activities like coding or learning a new language. I wanted to see my daily, weekly and monthly progress towards these goals, so I've created Hours app. THIS APP ONLY WORKS IF YOU HAVE A TOGGL ACCOUNT You could create goals for specific clients or projects and set time goals for days, weeks and months. Weekly and monthly goals could be calculated based on daily goals or you could set them manually. You could start timers for a particular goal by tapping on it - timers you've used most this week will be shown immediately, other timers are just one tap away. This app is made to improve your current results, so you could see results only for current periods. Results for previous periods you could find on Toggl site. I hope Hours app will help you achieve all your time goals!

Actify transforms your screen into a calm, looping worksite where a tiny miner toils as long as you do. One tap starts a lock‑screen focus session that blocks distractions, delivers gentle nudges, and rewards every minute you stay on task. How it works 1. One‑Tap Start – Pick a 20/25/30‑minute slot and hit Start. 2. Screen Lock + Subtle Animation – A soothing, slow‑progress scene holds just enough motion to keep ADHD brains engaged without hijacking attention. 3. Smart Nudges – If you try to quit early, the miner pops up with a quick pep talk (“Just 5 more minutes to level up your pickaxe!”). 4. Earn & Upgrade – Rack up coins for every finished session, level up your character, unlock new tools, and watch your stats climb in the StatsView. Why it helps • Low‑stimulus environment blocks high‑dopamine apps yet avoids boredom. • Micro‑task guidance bridges the hardest step for ADHD users—getting started. • Visible progress + virtual rewards boost dopamine, turning focus into a game. • Structured breaks prevent burnout and keep momentum rolling. Extra power‑ups • Insightful charts track daily focus streaks and peak productivity hours. • Smart Planner schedules multi‑step nudges before each task so you glide from plan to action. Download Actify Focus today, tap once, and tunnel straight into flow—no willpower required.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Focus Timer & Planner at none against Hours's 1. Focus Timer & Planner also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). Hours's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
