Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Timesheet Plus at 4.7 against Hours Keeper's 4.1. Timesheet Plus also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). Hours Keeper's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 74). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
