TRACK YOUR TIME One tap to start. One tap to stop. A timer built for focus, not friction. Every second you invest in your own projects is logged, stacked, and celebrated. No setup, no clutter.

It's about the hours you choose. The projects nobody assigned you. The vision only you can see. Stack your hours. Steer your ship. Build your streak. Own your time. Own Your Time. On Your Own Time.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Own Time at none against Three's 1. Own Time also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
