# ChickFocus vs Timefall

The clearest difference is ratings volume: ChickFocus at 1K against Timefall's 1. ChickFocus also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). Timefall's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 89%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ChickFocus sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Timefall sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Timefall holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ChickFocus has 1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 89% of ChickFocus's written reviews are positive against 100% of Timefall's.

ChickFocus ships an update every 8 days, Timefall every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 10, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
