# Multi vs GX Timer

The clearest difference is review sentiment: GX Timer at 100% against Multi's 64%. GX Timer also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 8) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). Multi's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (695 vs 1). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Multi sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. GX Timer asks for nothing beyond the download.

Multi holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Multi has 695 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Multi's written reviews are positive against 100% of GX Timer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Multi ships an update every 2 weeks, GX Timer every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
