Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Chime at none against VoyTimer's 2. Chime also leads on ratings volume (810 vs 148) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). VoyTimer's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 4 months) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
