Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: LapTrophy at free with in-app purchases against Timer for Workouts's subscription. LapTrophy also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16). Timer for Workouts's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support 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. Timer for Workouts sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and LapTrophy sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
LapTrophy holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timer for Workouts has 1.4K ratings behind it against 271, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 77% of Timer for Workouts's written reviews are positive against 79% of LapTrophy's.
Timer for Workouts ships an update monthly, LapTrophy every 3 months. Both last shipped on September 22, 2026.
