ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Sleep Timer holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sleep Timer has 185 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 46% of Sleep Timer's written reviews are positive against 100% of Sleep Timer Music's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Sleep Timer ships an update every 3 weeks, Sleep Timer Music weekly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
