Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BoxMed at none against Interval Timer's 1. BoxMed also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Interval Timer's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
