Verdict
Egg Timer and Egg Timer both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Egg Timer's written reviews are positive against 33% of Egg Timer's. Egg Timer also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). Egg Timer's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 19 months) and ratings volume (52 vs 12). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
