Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Kintore sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Simple Training Timer sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Kintore holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 96 and 63 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Kintore's written reviews are positive against 70% of Simple Training Timer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Kintore ships an update every 3 days, Simple Training Timer every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 28, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
