Note the time with Chronolog! Press the big plus button to save that moment in time! Add a text entry to a note either before or after saving, and edit it at will! Delete or duplicate a note (now with handy swipe controls)! You can even edit a note's date and time (to the nearest minute)! That's pretty much the gist of it. Multiple lists are at your disposal. Make a new one and give it a name to remember. And your most recently used list gets automagically opened on app launch! You can even copy your list to plaintext, to paste somewhere else, if you dare. New settings allow for novel functionality. Tired of tracking ticking seconds? Switch to "Minutes" time resolution to hide them! Have a love–hate relationship with counting? Let the app count for you by enabling "Note Index" display! And of course, who could forget "Time Diffs" to show the span between notes next to the time. And for a radically different experience, switch the clock mode to "Relative" for all times to display as the span since the first note — or the last!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Chronolog at 5.0 against Timeline Maker's 4.5. Chronolog also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3). Timeline Maker's advantage is ratings volume (13 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
