----- User's reviews ----- Peace of mind ***** by Aliyaan I always wanted this feature as a built-in in iOS,, nevermind, well this app is one the most useful app in App Store.. Recommending to every music person out there First review I've ever written about an app. But worth the time... ***** by Hr23331 ... To let people know that I spent WAY too much time (gee, thanks Apple App Store) looking for a timer app that plays a random song from my playlist. I use it to enhance my Pomodoro technique for productivity. I love the randomness of the app to pick a song from among my favorites as kind of an award for doing focused work. Anyway good job on the app. Pretty, too - I can't abide ugly interfaces. 使いやすい! ***** レビュー作成者 口笛を吹きながら全力疾走 iPhoneのタイマーだと、サイレントにしていても音が出てしまうのですが、これは、操作可能なので大変便利です デザインもきれいで気に入っています^^ 便利 ***** レビュー作成者 のんたん0841 すごく使いやすくて、便利ー めっちゃ便利!! ***** レビュー作成者 ahiru2gou 細かい時間設定が出来ていい! これいい! ***** レビュー作成者 パープルピック 使いやすくてサードパーティーアプリもよく対応するよ! ---------- [1] This Music timer works well in Silent mode or Do Not Disturb mode.

Verdict

The call

My Music Timer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Flip Timer & stopwatch holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flip Timer & stopwatch has 7.6K ratings behind it against 43, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of My Music Timer's written reviews are positive against 69% of Flip Timer & stopwatch's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

My Music Timer ships an update every 8 months, Flip Timer & stopwatch every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
