# Work Log vs Clock In

The clearest difference is ads: Clock In at none against Work Log's shown. Work Log's advantage is review sentiment (82% vs 58%) and ratings volume (4.6K vs 104). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Work Log sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Clock In sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Work Log holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Work Log has 4.6K ratings behind it against 104, so its average is the more settled of the two.
