# MapUs vs Contraction Timer

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Contraction Timer at none against MapUs's 2. Contraction Timer also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17). MapUs's advantage is ratings volume (44 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MapUs sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Contraction Timer asks for nothing beyond the download.

Contraction Timer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MapUs has 44 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
