Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: WorkTime at 4.4 against Station's 3.0. WorkTime also leads on ratings volume (4.7K vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Station's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
