Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StrengthReps at none against Timer Plus's 4. StrengthReps also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). Timer Plus's advantage is ratings volume (61K vs 2) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price and review sentiment 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. Timer Plus sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. StrengthReps asks for nothing beyond the download.
Timer Plus holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Timer Plus has 61K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of StrengthReps's written reviews are positive against 93% of Timer Plus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
StrengthReps ships an update every 6 days, Timer Plus every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 13, 2026 respectively.
