# HIIT & Tabata vs Boxing Timer PRO

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Boxing Timer PRO at 100% against HIIT & Tabata's 50%. Boxing Timer PRO also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). HIIT & Tabata's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 2).

Both are free to download. HIIT & Tabata sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Boxing Timer PRO sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
