# Time vs Time { +

The clearest difference is update cadence: Time { + at every 5 days against Time's every 2 months. Time { + also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 74%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Time's advantage is ratings volume (362 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Time sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Time { + sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Time { + holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Time has 362 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 74% of Time's written reviews are positive against 100% of Time { +'s.

Time ships an update every 2 months, Time { + every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
