# Kids Visual Timer vs Visual Timer Kids

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Visual Timer Kids at 100% against Kids Visual Timer's 50%. Kids Visual Timer's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Kids Visual Timer sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Visual Timer Kids sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Kids Visual Timer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 5 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Kids Visual Timer's written reviews are positive against 100% of Visual Timer Kids's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Kids Visual Timer ships an update weekly, Visual Timer Kids every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
