Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Timeline at none against LifeTrack's shown. Timeline also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 11). LifeTrack's advantage is iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. LifeTrack sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Timeline sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for LifeTrack against 4.5 for Timeline. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timeline has 1.1K ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 72% of LifeTrack's written reviews are positive against 66% of Timeline's.
LifeTrack ships an update every 2 months, Timeline monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 8, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
