# Helthy vs Interval Timer

The clearest difference is rating: Helthy at 4.9 against Interval Timer's 4.7. Helthy also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (21 vs 3). Interval Timer's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 90%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Helthy sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Interval Timer sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Helthy holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Helthy has 21 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of Helthy's written reviews are positive against 100% of Interval Timer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Helthy ships an update weekly, Interval Timer every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 16, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
