# Time Calculator vs Hindsight

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Time Calculator at 2.8K against Hindsight's 395. Time Calculator also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Time Calculator sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Hindsight sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Time Calculator has 2.8K ratings behind it against 395, so its average is the more settled of the two.
