Run as many timers as you need, all on one screen — free. Every timer is a card with a name and a progress ring. Tap the card to start or stop; when it finishes, the card flips color and pulses so you never miss it. Perfect for juggling several things at once. MANY TIMERS, ONE SCREEN • Multiple timers running in parallel — no limit • Name each one: "Pasta," "Oven," "Study" • Tap a card to start / stop — no fiddly buttons • Clear finish alert — color flip + pulse • Keeps the screen awake so timers stay visible FOR EVERY ROUTINE Cooking and baking, interval workouts, homework and study blocks, tea and eggs — anything that needs more than one timer. NO SUBSCRIPTION Other multi-timer apps charge monthly for basic timers. Not here. Unlimited timers are free. One-time Pro ($9.99) removes the small banner ad. No subscription. Ever.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Counter at none against Multi Timer's 1. Counter also leads on ads (none vs shown). Multi Timer's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.4). On price there is nothing between them.
