Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Timer at 4.4 against Timy's 3.6. Timer also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 63%) and ratings volume (81 vs 19). Timy's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
