Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: StatTimer at every 3 months against Finger Timer's every 16 months. StatTimer also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Finger Timer's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 50%) and ratings volume (345 vs 9). On price, ads, 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
StatTimer holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Finger Timer has 345 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Finger Timer's written reviews are positive against 50% of StatTimer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Finger Timer ships an update every 16 months, StatTimer every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 18, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
