# QuietAlert vs OneTouchVibrationTimer

OneTouchVibrationTimer also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 12 months) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 26.0). QuietAlert's advantage is review sentiment (44% vs 33%). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

OneTouchVibrationTimer holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.8. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 16 and 6 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of QuietAlert's written reviews are positive against 33% of OneTouchVibrationTimer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
