# Countdown Widget vs Time Office

The clearest difference is rating: Time Office at 5.0 against Countdown Widget's 4.4. Countdown Widget's advantage is ratings volume (44 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Countdown Widget sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Time Office sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Time Office holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Countdown Widget has 44 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Countdown Widget ships an update every 6 weeks, Time Office every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
