# Timy vs timer.

The clearest difference is rating: timer. at 4.3 against Timy's 3.6. timer. also leads on ratings volume (170 vs 19). Timy's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Timy sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and timer. sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Timy ships an update every 4 days, timer. every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 30, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
