When which app is the better choice
WorkingHours: The closest relative: local, no account, with geofencing. If you want to continue editing the same data on Windows or Mac and the Pro purchase does not bother you, it is a good choice. WorkFlow is the choice when the automation should be free and you need an hours account with a target per day.
Toggl Track: For freelancers and teams billing projects and clients. Strong reports and integrations, but no automatic clocking at the workplace, and always with an account and cloud.
Clockify: A generous free plan for teams up to five, timers, timesheets, many integrations. No automatic clocking by geofence; GPS locations are a Pro feature for managers, not for you.
timr: A company solution from Austria with GPS, geofencing and a drive log, built for employers tracking staff. For one person who only wants their own hours, the account, price and cloud model is more than necessary.
Honestly: WorkFlow does less than these apps. No projects, no invoices, no teams, no iPhone. It does one thing, your own working time, and that without an account, cloud, ads or cost.
