Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Workforce.com at none against Hours Tracker's 15. Workforce.com also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). Hours Tracker's advantage is review sentiment (73% vs 41%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.4). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
