Swim Time Conversion holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5.

Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Swim Time Conversion's written reviews are positive against 40% of StopWatch For Swimming's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Swim Time Conversion ships an update every 45 months, StopWatch For Swimming every 4 months. Both last shipped on November 1, 2026.
