Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Interval Timer at none against Timer Plus's shown. Interval Timer also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). Timer Plus's advantage is ratings volume (60K vs 3) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
