Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Make Me. at 80% against PushUp Time's 45%. Make Me. also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium) and update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). PushUp Time's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 15) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Make Me. sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and PushUp Time sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PushUp Time holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PushUp Time has 12K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Make Me.'s written reviews are positive against 45% of PushUp Time's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Make Me. ships an update every 2 days, PushUp Time weekly. Both last shipped on October 15, 2026.
