VisuCaller scans and calls printed phone numbers. An inapp purchases allows it to also scan contact information from the viewfinder or from a picture which can be saved to your device's contacts or an app list. For the phone tab, a viewfinder is used to enclose data to be scanned and phone numbers detected from the data are displayed in a list. If a number is detected multiple times quickly, the App will highlite it in green and can automatically initiate calling it (if enabled in settings). You can edit phone numbers in the list to add prefix codes or correct errors. Zoom control is provided using pinch gestures or double tapping. For the contacts tab (in app purchase), data can be detected by taking one or more pictures and/or using viewfinder for scanning smaller specific information. With either method, detected information is displayed in a list. The list shows hints of the types of contact information that can be scanned and you scan only the data you desire. If data is detected multiple times in succession, the App will highlite it in green, which is an indication the data has a high probability of being accurate. Specific list rows can be selected which will bias the viewfinder scanner to the particular data expected for the list row, which can improve detection ability. If you simply want to scan data but not save it, you simply tap the item once scanned to get map directions, email or browse a website. The list tab permits managing personal lists in the app. This is handy for information you may want to note but not necessarily save in your device's contacts to avoid cluttering. For example, you may take a trip once, need various pieces of contact information available but once the trip is finished, you may never need that information again. You can simply delete the list when the trip is done. This is much easier than going through your contacts and deciding what you need to delete. Common user interactions are : - tap viewfinder to refocus - swipe across viewfinder to clear list data and rescan - tap a camera button to take a photo for data to be processed for contact information - drag list handle up/down to stop/start camera scanning using the viewfinder - double tap viewfinder to cycle zoom levels ( 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 1.0 ...) - pinch zoom control - tap a list item to action ( make a call, browse a website, email, get map directions) - tap a list item to add it to information in a contact row - hold a list item to edit Note that this app uses OCR technology and only works with printed English text (not handwritten text) and cannot guarantee information is always scanned without errors. If the printed text is clear, characters are not touching or overlapping, it will very often detect correctly.

Happy time tracking! ——— Timery has been featured on MacStories, Cortex, Connected, AppStories, Upgrade, and The Sweet Setup. Federico Viticci, MacStories: “What sets Timery apart from other time tracking utilities is the unique combination of developer Hribar’s understanding of the needs of Toggl users and his embrace of modern iOS and iPadOS technologies. Timery isn’t just a more customizable Toggl client with advanced features […]; it’s also an exemplary iOS and iPadOS citizen that showcases what great iOS and iPad apps should offer.” Myke Hurley, Upgrade: “Timery is my favorite iOS app ever. I get such great use out of it, so it’s personal to me. Time tracking is a big part of my life. But this application—the amount of work that is put into this and new features is truly astounding. […] It’s really just a masterclass in long-term app development.” Mike Schmitz, The Sweet Setup: “Timery is hands down the best time tracking app for iOS. It gives you a functional user interface that is perfect for managing your timers and your time entries, the Shortcuts support is stellar, and the widgets eliminate much of the friction that typically comes from starting and stopping manual timers.” ——— Subscription Details: • Payment will be charged to your Apple ID account at the confirmation of purchase or after the free trial period if offered. • Your subscription will automatically renew unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Timery at Free against VisuCaller's $1.99. Timery also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 12). VisuCaller's advantage is review sentiment (95% vs 79%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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
Timery is free to download; VisuCaller costs $1.99 up front. VisuCaller sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Timery sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Timery holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timery has 1.1K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 95% of VisuCaller's written reviews are positive against 79% of Timery's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
VisuCaller ships an update every 15 months, Timery every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 11, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
