Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: TimeCal at none against PMB Documents's shown. TimeCal also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 15 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). PMB Documents's advantage is ratings volume (1K vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PMB Documents sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and TimeCal sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
TimeCal holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8.

PMB Documents ships an update every 15 months, TimeCal weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
