# PlanSense vs Chrony

The clearest difference is rating: Chrony at 5.0 against PlanSense's 4.5. Chrony also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 3 days) and review sentiment (100% vs 92%). PlanSense's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PlanSense sells 15 one-off in-app purchases and Chrony sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Chrony holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PlanSense has 17 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 92% of PlanSense's written reviews are positive against 100% of Chrony's.

PlanSense ships an update every 3 days, Chrony daily. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
