Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Keys at 292 against TimeCal's 1. Keys also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 14.0). TimeCal's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Keys sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and TimeCal sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
TimeCal holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Keys has 292 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 83% of Keys's written reviews are positive against 100% of TimeCal's.
Keys ships an update every 2 weeks, TimeCal weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
