# Multi Timer vs timer.

The clearest difference is rating: timer. at 4.3 against Multi Timer's 3.7. timer. also leads on ratings volume (170 vs 11). Multi Timer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and review sentiment (73% vs 63%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. timer. sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Multi Timer asks for nothing beyond the download.

timer. holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: timer. has 170 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 73% of Multi Timer's written reviews are positive against 63% of timer.'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
