# Workout Timer vs Sequence

The clearest difference is rating: Sequence at 5.0 against Workout Timer's 4.3. Sequence also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Workout Timer's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly) and ratings volume (43 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Workout Timer sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Sequence sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Sequence holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Workout Timer has 43 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Workout Timer ships an update every 2 days, Sequence weekly. The most recent releases landed on June 5, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
