You know the feeling. It's 9 PM and you're wondering where the day went. You were busy — but doing what, exactly? Tally answers that question. Not with timers or complicated tracking. Just a gentle nudge throughout the day: "What did you just do?" Tap a category and you're done. Three seconds, tops. Do this for a few days and something shifts. You stop guessing and start seeing. The afternoon you thought was productive? Mostly phone. The evening you felt was wasted? Actually a solid mix of cooking and reading. Tally doesn't judge. It just shows you the picture. YOUR DAY AT A GLANCE Your daily timeline is a visual map of how your hours were spent, color-coded by category. At a glance, you see the shape of your day — what you did, and what slipped by unlogged. LOG WITHOUT THINKING - A gentle nudge at the interval you choose - Quick-log directly from the notification — no need to open the app - Pick from your most-used categories with a single tap - Only active during your waking hours — you set the schedule CATEGORIES THAT FIT YOUR LIFE Tally comes with 10 default categories: Work, Rest, Exercise, Social Media, Reading, Commute, Cooking, Entertainment, Social, and Other. Add your own — unlimited, with custom icons and colors. Your categories should reflect how you actually spend time, not how you wish you did. BALANCE, NOT JUST DATA Tally tracks four dimensions of a well-spent day through balance bars: - Create: time spent on focused, productive work - Recharge: rest, exercise, cooking — recovery that actually counts - Focus: your day minus the distractions - Awareness: how much of your day you've accounted for Each bar has a personal target. When all four close, you've had a balanced day — by your own definition, not anyone else's. SEE THE PATTERNS The Insights tab breaks down your time across four views: - Daily: where today's hours went, charted by category - Weekly: seven days side by side — spot the rhythm of your week - Monthly: trends that only emerge over longer stretches - Yearly: the full picture of how your time adds up No scores designed to guilt you. Just clean data about your own life. BUILT TO STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY - iCloud sync keeps your data across all your devices - Dark mode that follows your system setting - Works offline — your data is local first, always - No account required. No sign-up. No analytics tracking you. Tally is completely free. Every feature, every insight, every category — no paywalls, no limits, no "upgrade to unlock" screens. WHAT TALLY IS NOT Tally is not a Pomodoro tool. There are no work/break cycles. Tally is not a billing tracker. There are no projects or clients. Tally is a mirror. It shows you where your time goes. What you do with that information is entirely up to you. Terms of Use: https://www.theblackholecompany.com/termsConditions.html

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: ModeAI at every 2 weeks against Tally's every 6 weeks. ModeAI also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Tally's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ModeAI sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Tally sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ModeAI holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tally has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ModeAI ships an update every 2 weeks, Tally every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
