# Notepad vs Time Tracker Free

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Notepad at 84% against Time Tracker Free's 33%. Notepad also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (29K vs 10). Time Tracker Free's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Notepad sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Time Tracker Free sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Notepad holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Notepad has 29K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 84% of Notepad's written reviews are positive against 33% of Time Tracker Free's.
