# TimerZ vs ABTimers

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ABTimers at 100% against TimerZ's 60%. ABTimers also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). TimerZ's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (10 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TimerZ sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and ABTimers sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TimerZ holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TimerZ has 10 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of TimerZ's written reviews are positive against 100% of ABTimers's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

TimerZ ships an update every 3 months, ABTimers every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 9, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
