Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Egg Timer Plus at 4.7 against Egg Timer's 3.8. Egg Timer Plus also leads on ratings volume (612 vs 5) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). Egg Timer's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 86%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Egg Timer Plus holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Egg Timer Plus has 612 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of Egg Timer Plus's written reviews are positive against 100% of Egg Timer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Egg Timer Plus ships an update every 2 months, Egg Timer fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and July 16, 2026 respectively.
