Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Timer® at none against Timer's 3. Timer® also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4). Timer's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 11 months) and review sentiment (75% vs 63%). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Timer sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per month. Timer® asks for nothing beyond the download.
Timer® holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 81 and 38 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Timer's written reviews are positive against 63% of Timer®'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Timer ships an update fortnightly, Timer® every 11 months. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
