How we grade them

3.0GPASparkDayVery good3.4GPATiimoVery good
Value for money
BPro is $49.99 a year, about $4.17 a month, or $6.99 monthly. That's a little under the middle for planners. What it buys is modest: no ads, 25 leaderboard friends, premium sounds and clock faces, 5 AI roasts a day and AI daily reports.
BThe US App Store lists Pro purchases from $7.00 to $54.00 without showing which are monthly and which are yearly, and Tiimo publishes no price list. If the low figures are months, that's about typical for a planner. We can't call it better than that.
Free plan and trial
AThe planner, step tracker, journal, habits, reminders and focus timer are all free, with no account to make. You'll see ads, and the leaderboard stops at 3 friends. Most people could stay right here.
BFree on iPhone and Android, with the basic planner, to-do list, focus timer and 1 profile. But AI chats are limited, the web planner isn't included, and calendar integration is listed as Pro. The 7-day trial comes only with the yearly subscription.
Features
BA 24-hour timeline with alarms, step counts with leaderboards, habit streaks, a journal with voice-to-text in 15 languages, and a Pomodoro timer with 50 music tracks. Lots packed in. But neither the site nor the App Store listing mentions syncing with outside calendars.
AA drag-and-drop timeline with colours and icons, a to-do tab, a visual countdown timer, mood check-ins, and an AI Co-planner that breaks tasks into steps and guesses how long each takes. Calendars come in from Apple, Google and Outlook. The Co-planner isn't on Android, mind.
Ease of use
BNo App Store rating on record, so a B is our ceiling. There's no account to set up, so you can open it and start planning. The free version does show ads while you do.
B4.59 from about 20,600 App Store ratings, a whisker under our line for an A. You can type or just say what's on your mind and the Co-planner turns it into tasks, which is about as gentle a start as a planner gets.
Platforms and integrations
CiPhone and Android phones only. There's no web or desktop version, and the App Store listing is for iPhone, not iPad. The one connection on record is Health Connect.
AiPhone, Android, Mac, Apple Watch and a web planner, with Apple, Google and Outlook calendars brought in. No Windows app. The Mac version needs macOS 15 and an M1 chip or later, and the web planner needs Pro.
