# Photo Timer+ vs Cheez

Photo Timer+ and Cheez both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 93% of Photo Timer+'s written reviews are positive against 25% of Cheez's. Photo Timer+ also leads on ratings volume (8.4K vs 12) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Cheez's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Photo Timer+ sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Cheez sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Photo Timer+ against 4.6 for Cheez. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Photo Timer+ has 8.4K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 93% of Photo Timer+'s written reviews are positive against 25% of Cheez's.

Photo Timer+ ships an update every 5 months, Cheez every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 18, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
