Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: TimerCubed at 100% against Umiibo's 43%. TimerCubed also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). Umiibo's advantage is price (Free vs $1.99) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
