Timer's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (29 vs 4). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Timer holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timer has 29 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Timer's written reviews are positive against 93% of MultiTimer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Timer ships an update fortnightly, MultiTimer every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 29, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
