# HIIT vs Boxing Coach Workout Timer

The clearest difference is review sentiment: HIIT at 91% against Boxing Coach Workout Timer's 56%. HIIT also leads on ratings volume (31K vs 582) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Boxing Coach Workout Timer's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HIIT sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Boxing Coach Workout Timer sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

HIIT holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: HIIT has 31K ratings behind it against 582, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 91% of HIIT's written reviews are positive against 56% of Boxing Coach Workout Timer's.

HIIT ships an update monthly, Boxing Coach Workout Timer every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
