# World Clock Pro vs Frame

The clearest difference is monetization model: Frame at free with in-app purchases against World Clock Pro's subscription. Frame also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). World Clock Pro's advantage is ratings volume (1.4K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. World Clock Pro sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Frame sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Frame holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: World Clock Pro has 1.4K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

World Clock Pro ships an update every 2 months, Frame every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and October 19, 2026 respectively.
