Discover Flowton - a quantum leap in productivity. Flowton is a gamified time tracker that helps you focus, build habits, and visualize your day. Rethink your time around objectives ("cores"). Productive time goes up. Unproductive time goes down. How it works: ◦ Banked time generates flowtons — a productivity particle that only exists when you measure it. ◦ Run Countdown or Count Up timers to deposit time into your Core, or discard it into the Black Hole. ◦ Productive time builds up orbits around the Core. Unproductive time gets ejected into the Black Hole. Monitor and improve your ratio. ◦ Create boards with a multitude of Cores, find the perfect daily setup to achieve your goals. ◦ Visualize your time history, view stats and set objectives. Features: ∘ Sci-fi gamified time tracking. ∘ Multiple time-keeping tools to help you make it your own. ∘ Finish the day strong and store your Core into your productivity history. ∘ Bank Cores daily or over longer periods - you decide how time works for you. ∘ Maintain a streak to stay on track. ∘ Full offline functionality. ∘ Upgrade to Flowton Prime to create (theme) multiple boards, and view more historic day cells. All else is base game. Time is finite. Use it wisely.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SmartPomo Timer at none against Flowton's 1. Flowton's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
