Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Timed at 100% against ProLight's 60%. Timed also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and device support (3 vs 1). ProLight's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months) and rating (4.8 vs 4.6). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

ProLight holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ProLight has 82 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of ProLight's written reviews are positive against 100% of Timed's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ProLight ships an update monthly, Timed every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
