# Timer Plus vs Multi

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Timer Plus at 60K against Multi's 105. Timer Plus also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Timer Plus sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Multi sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Timer Plus against 4.8 for Multi. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timer Plus has 60K ratings behind it against 105, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 94% of Timer Plus's written reviews are positive against 86% of Multi's.
