Tokiwa is a time-management app that lets you build your day on a single pie chart — 24 hours, one circle. Seeing your day as a circle instead of a list makes it easy to grasp where your time goes and how much is still free. ■ Visualize your day as a pie chart ・24 hours shown as a clockwise circle. Tasks appear as colorful wedges at a glance. ・Free time is totaled automatically — instantly see how many hours you have left today. ・Choose which hour sits at the top and how often time labels appear, to match your daily rhythm. ■ Intuitive editing ・Drag the edges of a task to adjust its start and end times. ・Use the zoom view (one hour = one full circle) for fine 5-minute adjustments. ・Drag a to-do onto the chart to place it on your timeline. ■ Replay your daily routine (Pro) ・Save the days you use most as templates and apply them with one tap. Set per-weekday defaults too. ・Get notified before a task starts. ■ Sync & share (Pro) ・Two-way sync your to-dos with Apple Reminders — read and write them in a dedicated "Tokiwa" list (on-device only). ・Export today's pie chart as a PNG image to share. ■ Your data stays on your device ・All data is stored on your device. No account, no server uploads. The core features are free. The zoom view, notifications, templates, Reminders sync, and PNG sharing are unlocked with Tokiwa Pro, a one-time purchase.

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Orc Mode at none against Tokiwa's 1. Orc Mode also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
