Clocktower Time Tracker
Read full descriptionHide full description
Log your day in a swipe and watch your billable total add up. Clocktower is a visual time tracker for people who bill for their hours: drop your hours as a stack of colored blocks, assign each to a project, and see the total in real time. LOG WITH JUST A SWIPE Swipe up to drop a time block, then tap a project to assign it. No forms, no fiddly start and stop. Add a note if you want one. BUILT TO INVOICE Give each project its own hourly rate and Clocktower turns tracked hours into billable totals automatically. When it is time to bill, filter by project and date range and export a clean timesheet. REMINDERS SO NOTHING SLIPS Turn on daily reminders to log your hours. Your timesheet stops being a guess at the end of the week. KNOW WHERE THE HOURS WENT Reports break your time down by project and by week, with earnings shown in your own currency. START A TIMER IN A TAP Running late on logging? Start a live timer from the app, the home screen widget, or the Lock Screen, and it lands in the right block. ON EVERY DEVICE Clocktower runs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and your hours sync privately through iCloud across all of them. There is no account to create and no sign up. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Clocktower has no ads and no tracking. Your time data stays in your own iCloud, not on our servers. Clocktower is free to track up to five projects. Clocktower Pro unlocks unlimited projects. Clocktower Pro is available as an auto-renewing monthly or yearly subscription, or as a one time lifetime purchase. Subscription prices are shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. A subscription renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the current period ends. You can manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.

Your to-do list is broken. You open it, organize everything just right, close it, and move on with your day. Two hours later you can't remember a single thing on the list. Sound familiar? That's because every task app is designed to be opened and closed. And the moment you close it, your tasks stop existing. Visido works differently. It stays. On your Mac, Visido floats above your workspace all day. Above your browser, your documents, your email. There's no Dock icon to find, no window to dig up. Your tasks sit right beside whatever you're working on. On your iPhone, Visido puts your tasks in the Dynamic Island and on your Lock Screen. Every glance at your phone is a reminder. No app to open. No inbox to check. You stop thinking about task management. You just see what needs doing, and you do it. Because the only way to clear Visido from your screen is to check things off. WHAT YOU GET (FREE, FOREVER): - Full calendar with month view - Always-on-top floating window on Mac (stays above every app) - Dynamic Island and Live Activity on iPhone - Interactive home screen and Lock Screen widgets - iCloud sync across all your devices - Smart date input (type "tomorrow" or "next friday") - Overdue indicators so nothing slips through - Light, dark, and system appearance with font scaling - Menu bar control with no Dock clutter VISIDO PRO: - Tags and Project Mode: organize by project, client, or context - Repeating tasks: daily, weekly, custom patterns, complex schedules - Apple Reminders import: pull tasks from your Reminders inbox - Full natural language input: "call mom every tuesday #work !urgent" - Additional themes and accent colors Visido Pro is $19.99/year, $2.99/month, or $79.99 for lifetime access. Built for people who are done with productivity theater. No gamification. No AI gimmicks. No settings rabbit holes. Just your tasks, always visible, until they're done.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Clocktower Time Tracker at every 2 days against Visido's every 2 weeks. Clocktower Time Tracker also leads on device support (4 vs 2). Visido's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
