# Crypton vs Countdown Pro

The clearest difference is rating: Crypton at 4.7 against Countdown Pro's 3.6. Crypton also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (180 vs 5). Countdown Pro's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Countdown Pro sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Crypton asks for nothing beyond the download.

Crypton holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Crypton has 180 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 84% of Crypton's written reviews are positive against 81% of Countdown Pro's.

Crypton ships an update every 5 weeks, Countdown Pro every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
