Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: VisualTimer at none against Multi Timer's 1. VisualTimer also leads on ads (none vs shown). Multi Timer's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
