# MultiTimer vs QuietAlert

The clearest difference is rating: MultiTimer at 4.7 against QuietAlert's 2.8. MultiTimer also leads on review sentiment (79% vs 44%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 12 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MultiTimer sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and QuietAlert sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MultiTimer holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MultiTimer has 16K ratings behind it against 16, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 79% of MultiTimer's written reviews are positive against 44% of QuietAlert's.

MultiTimer ships an update every 2 weeks, QuietAlert every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and July 18, 2026 respectively.
