Verdict

The call

Checkbook and Hours tracker both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 56% of Checkbook's written reviews are positive against 0% of Hours tracker's. Checkbook also leads on ratings volume (14K vs 114) and chart position (#150 vs unranked). Hours tracker's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Checkbook sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Hours tracker sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Hours tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Checkbook has 14K ratings behind it against 114, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Checkbook's written reviews are positive against 0% of Hours tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
