# Whistle Timer vs Taekwondo Scoreboard

The clearest difference is rating: Whistle Timer at 4.4 against Taekwondo Scoreboard's 3.8. Whistle Timer also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (100 vs 4). Taekwondo Scoreboard's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 10 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Whistle Timer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Taekwondo Scoreboard sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Whistle Timer holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Whistle Timer has 100 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Whistle Timer ships an update every 10 months, Taekwondo Scoreboard every 3 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
