# Beeper vs TimeCap

The clearest difference is rating: Beeper at 4.7 against TimeCap's 3.6. Beeper also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 13) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Beeper sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and TimeCap sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Beeper holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beeper has 1.1K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 71% of Beeper's written reviews are positive against 64% of TimeCap's.

Beeper ships an update every 6 days, TimeCap every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 17, 2026.
