# Timer vs Multi Timer

The clearest difference is ads: Timer at none against Multi Timer's shown. Timer also leads on ratings volume (15 vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Multi Timer's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (80% vs 67%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Timer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Multi Timer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Multi Timer holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timer has 15 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of Timer's written reviews are positive against 80% of Multi Timer's.

Timer ships an update every 3 months, Multi Timer every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
