# MultiTimer vs Time’s Up!

The clearest difference is update cadence: MultiTimer at every 2 weeks against Time’s Up!'s every 6 weeks. MultiTimer also leads on ratings volume (16K vs 435). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MultiTimer sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Time’s Up! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for MultiTimer against 4.6 for Time’s Up!. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MultiTimer has 16K ratings behind it against 435, so its average is the more settled of the two.
