Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: WorkHours at Free against TDF Tracker's $9.99. WorkHours also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 11). TDF Tracker's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and chart position (#178 vs unranked). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

WorkHours holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WorkHours has 1.2K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 87% of TDF Tracker's written reviews are positive against 84% of WorkHours's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

TDF Tracker ships an update every 7 months, WorkHours every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
