Ring Timer is a round timer for boxing, MMA, kickboxing and any training that runs on rounds and rest. Set it once and put the phone down. The bell rings, the last five seconds tick, and the round number is called out, all with the screen locked and the phone in your bag. ROUNDS THAT SOUND RIGHT ⢠A real bell to open and close every round ⢠Countdown ticks over the last five seconds, so you feel the round ending ⢠Optional spoken round numbers, so you never have to look ⢠Everything is independently switchable ā bell only, ticks only, silent BUILT FOR TRAINING, NOT FOR STARING AT ⢠Runs with the screen off and the app in the background ⢠A Lock Screen widget shows the round you're on without unlocking ⢠Big, high-contrast digits that read across a gym YOUR ROUNDS, YOUR WAY ⢠Five ready-made profiles: Classic Boxing, Amateur Boxing, MMA, Muay Thai and Kick Boxing ⢠Or build your own, rounds, round length, rest length, warm-up and end warnings ⢠Rename, duplicate and delete profiles freely ON YOUR WRIST ⢠A full Apple Watch app, not a remote ⢠Start, pause and stop from the watch, with or without your phone nearby ⢠A tap on the wrist at every round boundary SYNCED, PRIVATELY ⢠Your profiles and settings follow you to every device via your own iCloud account ⢠Nothing is collected, nothing is tracked, no account to create ⢠Ring Timer has no server, your data goes to your iCloud, not to us NO SUBSCRIPTION Ring Timer is free, complete, and stays that way.

The clearest difference is update cadence: Ring Timer at every 5 days against DING's every 3 weeks. DING's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
