# Timeframe vs WorkTime

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Timeframe at 94% against WorkTime's 59%. Timeframe also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and monetization model (free vs freemium). WorkTime's advantage is ratings volume (4.7K vs 18) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Timeframe sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and WorkTime sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Timeframe holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WorkTime has 4.7K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 94% of Timeframe's written reviews are positive against 59% of WorkTime's.

Timeframe ships an update every 2 months, WorkTime every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 18, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
