# Sound Timer vs Timer®

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Timer® at none against Sound Timer's 1. Timer® also leads on ratings volume (38 vs 1). Sound Timer's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sound Timer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Timer® asks for nothing beyond the download.

Sound Timer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timer® has 38 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
