Prices and features from each vendor’s own website, checked September 28, 2026. Prices change often — confirm on the vendor’s site before you buy. “Not stated” means the vendor’s site does not say. We don’t publish ratings.

How we compare

Every price and feature in the table comes from the vendor’s own website (pricing pages, feature pages and help centers), with the date we checked it. We don’t accept payment for placement, we don’t publish star ratings, and when a vendor’s site doesn’t say whether a feature exists, the table says “Not stated” instead of guessing.

How to choose

  • Hourly staff who clock in and out: look at clock-in, kiosk, GPS or geofencing, breaks and overtime rows.
  • Project or client billing: look for billable rates, invoicing and project reports.
  • Team size: free plans differ a lot in how many users they allow — check the “Free plan” row.
  • Payroll: if you already use a payroll service, check that the app exports or connects to it.

Whatever you pick, check the hours it records: our time card calculator and overtime calculator show the math step by step.

Frequently asked questions

Which time tracking app is free for unlimited users?

Of the four apps compared here, Jibble’s own site describes its free plan as “free forever” for unlimited users. Clockify’s free plan is for up to 5 users, Harvest’s covers 1 seat and 2 projects, and Toggl Track’s is for a limited number of users.

Can a free time tracker handle overtime?

Some can flag or report overtime, often on paid plans. Overtime pay itself depends on your state’s rules; you can check the math with our overtime calculator.

Do I still need timesheets if I use an app?

Employers must keep accurate records of hours worked under the FLSA. An app can be that record if it stores the actual hours and you can export them.
