# Daily vs Time Squared

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Time Squared at 2.4K against Daily's 9. Time Squared also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.6) and chart position (#160 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Daily sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Time Squared sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Time Squared holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Time Squared has 2.4K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 86% of Daily's written reviews are positive against 89% of Time Squared's.

Daily ships an update every 2 weeks, Time Squared every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 13, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
