Time tracking shouldn't be another chore. JustNow is a minimal personal time log that helps you build a continuous timeline of how you actually spend your day. Finished reading, working, or having coffee? Jot down what you just did. JustNow helps record the time since your previous entry, so your day gradually takes shape without constantly starting and stopping timers. LOG AFTER YOU FINISH Write a short activity name or use voice input. JustNow fills in the time from your previous entry or fresh start to now. If you are catching up on several activities, adjust the times or add an earlier entry yourself. SEE YOUR DAY TAKE SHAPE Keep activities, durations and thoughts together in a daily timeline. Today's Review shows how your recorded time is distributed across categories, so you can notice the shape of your day without chasing a score. MAKE EVERYDAY LOGGING QUICK Save activities you use often and choose up to six Quick Add shortcuts. Medium and large Home Screen widgets let you log saved activities with a tap. After a long gap, JustNow asks you to review the elapsed time before continuing. LEAVE ROOM FOR THOUGHTS Add a short thought alongside your activities. A thought does not split an activity's time interval. START FREE Log activities, use saved activities and widgets, review today's timeline and time breakdown, add one thought for today, and export your records as JSON. UNLOCK MORE WHEN YOU NEED IT An optional monthly subscription or lifetime purchase unlocks past-day access, trends and history search, additional thoughts, custom categories, optional private iCloud sync, JSON import and more. See current pricing in the app. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account required. No ads or third-party analytics. Your records stay on your device unless you choose optional private iCloud sync or export them. Made for iPhone. Requires iOS 26 or later. Available in English and Simplified Chinese. Live first. Log later.

Startklar

The task is not big. Starting it is. Startklar does one thing. It turns something you have been putting off into a first physical step, and gets you through one short sprint on it. HOW IT GOES Write down the thing you are avoiding. Startklar offers a few first steps small enough to actually begin, or you write your own. Too big? Ask for smaller. Then pick a length and press Start. The step sits on your lock screen with a countdown, and it rings through silent mode and a Focus, because a sprint you cannot hear is a sprint you will miss. When it ends you say what happens next: five more minutes, the next step, or enough for now. When the task itself is finished, you say that too. Startklar never decides for you that something is done. ON YOUR DEVICE Step suggestions are generated on your device by Apple Intelligence. Your tasks, steps and sprints are stored on your device and nowhere else. No account, no analytics, no tracking, no server. Delete the app and everything it stored goes with it. WHAT IT COSTS The loop is free, as often as you like: write it down, pick a step, sprint, say what happened. One round of step suggestions a day is free too. Pro lifts that limit, as a subscription or as a one-time purchase. German and English, both written natively. iPhone only. Not a medical device. Startklar replaces neither therapy nor advice.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Startklar at daily against JustNow's every 10 days. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
