Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Encrypted Email at Free against MultiTimer Plus's $2.99. Encrypted Email also leads on review sentiment (42% vs 0%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 20 months). MultiTimer Plus's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 3.8).

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MultiTimer Plus holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Encrypted Email has 76 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of MultiTimer Plus's written reviews are positive against 42% of Encrypted Email's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

MultiTimer Plus ships an update every 20 months, Encrypted Email every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 3, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
