# Multi Timer vs Sandy Timer

The clearest difference is rating: Sandy Timer at 4.5 against Multi Timer's 4.1. Multi Timer's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (59 vs 6). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
