Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Work Log at 4.3 against TimeSheet's 3.3. Work Log also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). TimeSheet's advantage is review sentiment (54% vs 28%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. TimeSheet sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Work Log sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Work Log holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Work Log has 817 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of TimeSheet's written reviews are positive against 28% of Work Log's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

TimeSheet ships an update every 4 months, Work Log every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 20, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
