Our Verdict
Clocker is a strong alternative with calendar integration, meeting join links, and many features. After a ~3-year dormancy it was revived in 2026 under new ownership, and while the base app is still free and open-source, Google Calendar integration and some widgets now require a $19.99 Pro upgrade. Time offers unique features like airport code search, a date picker for future planning, and dismissable calendar events — all included in one purchase. Choose Clocker if the free tier covers your needs; choose Time for a complete feature set without a separate Pro upgrade.
