# Timezone Assistant vs Savvy Time

The clearest difference is rating: Savvy Time at 4.9 against Timezone Assistant's 1.0. Savvy Time also leads on ratings volume (543 vs 1). Timezone Assistant's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Savvy Time sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Timezone Assistant asks for nothing beyond the download.

Savvy Time holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Savvy Time has 543 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Timezone Assistant's written reviews are positive against 78% of Savvy Time's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
