# Timer vs One Timer

The clearest difference is rating: One Timer at 5.0 against Timer's 4.4. One Timer also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 months). Timer's advantage is ratings volume (15 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Timer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and One Timer sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

One Timer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timer has 15 ratings behind it against 1, 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 100% of One Timer's.

Timer ships an update every 3 months, One Timer every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
