Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Impress at none against Gym Chrono Timer's 1. Impress also leads on ads (none vs shown). Gym Chrono Timer's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly) and device support (4 vs 1). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
