Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: PerfectWOD Timer at 5.0 against sakun's 4.5. PerfectWOD Timer also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). sakun's advantage is ratings volume (137 vs 5) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
