Deadline shows how much time is left before what matters: every deadline gets a progress bar that fills up day by day. Follow your deadlines in interactive widgets on the Home Screen and Lock Screen, in Live Activities and Dynamic Island, and get notifications right on time. View deadlines in List or Columns mode, sort them into categories, pin the important ones and add notes. Deadline works on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch and syncs through iCloud.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: UTime at none against Deadline App's 2. UTime also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (17.6 vs 26.0). Deadline App's advantage is device support (4 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
