Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Interval Timer at 4.5 against Interval Timer's 3.9. Interval Timer also leads on ratings volume (149 vs 7). Interval Timer's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Interval Timer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Interval Timer sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Interval Timer holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Interval Timer has 149 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of Interval Timer's written reviews are positive against 29% of Interval Timer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Interval Timer ships an update weekly, Interval Timer every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 4, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
