# +1 Timer vs Stopwatch

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: +1 Timer at none against Stopwatch's 1. Stopwatch's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Stopwatch sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. +1 Timer asks for nothing beyond the download.

+1 Timer ships an update every 6 weeks, Stopwatch every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 30, 2026 respectively.
