The Payentry mobile app offers individuals access to their employee information, and provides employers with a cutting edge time and attendance solution for employees to clock in and out on a tablet in their workplace on the kiosk clock. Individuals can view all of their employee information in one place. Pay history is available by year, and paystub details are displayed in a graph so individuals can see the allocation of their pay check. When enabled by their employer, individuals can clock in and out using the Time Mgmt capabilities and view their tax forms, such as 1099-M, W-2, and 1095-C. Individuals can view their contact, status & position, accruals, direct deposits, and deductions. When using the kiosk clock at a business location, individuals can clock in and out for their work shifts. Using a clock ID and facial recognition, the Payentry kiosk clock helps businesses reduce wage and hour fraud. Individuals are able to send a note to their manager and clock in and out of different departments and jobs when applicable. Once an individual has saved a time punch, they’ll immediately see a large message indicating success.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Payentry at 2.7 against TimeWorksPlus's 2.4. Payentry also leads on ratings volume (615 vs 99). TimeWorksPlus's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). On price, review sentiment, 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Payentry holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Payentry has 615 ratings behind it against 99, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of TimeWorksPlus's written reviews are positive against 13% of Payentry's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
TimeWorksPlus ships an update every 2 months, Payentry every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 18, 2026 respectively.
