Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Interval Timer at 4.9 against ChronoSport's 4.6. Interval Timer also leads on ratings volume (250 vs 44) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. ChronoSport sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Interval Timer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Interval Timer holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Interval Timer has 250 ratings behind it against 44, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of ChronoSport's written reviews are positive against 84% of Interval Timer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
ChronoSport ships an update every 4 months, Interval Timer every 2 months. Both last shipped on November 11, 2026.
