# Time Calculator vs Pace Time

The clearest difference is rating: Time Calculator at 4.7 against Pace Time's 4.0. Time Calculator also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months). Pace Time's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 79%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Time Calculator sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Pace Time sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Time Calculator holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Time Calculator has 2.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Time Calculator's written reviews are positive against 100% of Pace Time's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Time Calculator ships an update every 2 weeks, Pace Time every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 11, 2026 respectively.
