# VeryFitPro vs iConnect Next by Timex

The clearest difference is ads: iConnect Next by Timex at none against VeryFitPro's shown. iConnect Next by Timex also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). VeryFitPro's advantage is ratings volume (4.2K vs 27) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

VeryFitPro holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VeryFitPro has 4.2K ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of VeryFitPro's written reviews are positive against 36% of iConnect Next by Timex's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

VeryFitPro ships an update every 2 months, iConnect Next by Timex every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 12, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
