Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Insight Timer at freemium against ReikiAll's subscription. Insight Timer also leads on ratings volume (449K vs 1K) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). ReikiAll's advantage is review sentiment (86% vs 70%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Insight Timer sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and ReikiAll sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Insight Timer against 4.9 for ReikiAll. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Insight Timer has 449K ratings behind it against 1K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 70% of Insight Timer's written reviews are positive against 86% of ReikiAll's.
Insight Timer ships an update weekly, ReikiAll every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
