Both are free to download. FaceClock Calendar sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Minimum Clock sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Minimum Clock holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FaceClock Calendar has 32 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.

FaceClock Calendar ships an update every 3 months, Minimum Clock every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
