Premium Pass starts with a 1-week free trial for eligible new subscribers, then renews automatically every month at the price shown in the app until you cancel. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase or, with a free trial, when the trial ends.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Tabata Timer □ at none against HIIT Me!'s shown. Tabata Timer □ also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). HIIT Me!'s advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
