  • Beautiful app

    This is what I was looking for! Perfect simple and easy to use. Well done!
  • Super helpful

    I’m finding this super helpful for getting to things on time and completing things in a timely manner - it helps me keep track of time better and have some sense of urgency. I do wish there was a way to set some of the timers up to activate on their own at a certain time for recurrent events. For example, if I need to leave at 8 each morning for work, if I could set it up so that at 7 it automatically activated that timer on weekdays.

  • Conquering Procrastination

    My most challenging tasks are tidying my clutter in different corners of my flat. I usually look at them and move on to something else. Since downloading this app I often give myself five minutes to sort as much as I can and it is amazing how much I achieve in that time. I especially love the voice counting me down. It’s like being cheered on. Five minutes for an irritating task does not feel onerous and can be fitted in any time. I have not been prompted to write this review but am more than happy to do so.

  • This app is a scam

    I scrapped this app forever
  • Very good app

    Very good app
  • This is a perfect app

    Talking timer with many options. That’s a life saver for me in many occasions. Well done.
  • Bug when “avoid overlapping voices” is off

    Developer, great app, but the alerts have major problems when this setting is off. I wasn’t getting alerts until i unlocked the and opened the app, then it would play a very delayed alert that it should have played previously. Please kindly test it!
  • Excellent countdown timer with many tweaks and customisation

    I have tried a few timers with voice activation in the App Store and some are locked into portrait mode. Obviously for the iPhone but I’m using an iPad and always in landscape mode.
    This one is easy to understand, easy to set up with choices of voices and two linked to Siri.
    I have enjoyed setting up Siri to say at the end of the countdown “ Siri ,Flip a Coin” I’m getting the response it’s heads or its tails this time.
    I find that Siri only responds to certain voices from the menu, but seems to work reliably on the one labelled Arthur enhanced.
    Also, you need no other noise in the room.
    I’m pleased to say so far I’ve had no adverts popping up within about 10 seconds of installing all for a couple of days. The upgrade option does seem a bit expensive and I would rather one of payment.
    I would happily upgrade to the pro version, but I would prefer a one off payment rather than a monthly subscription, which did seem fairly expensive and I would rather have a one off payment of a reasonable sum

  • almost perfect, just needs alarm sounds

    This is the best talking countdown timer app. I love how you can customize the intervals. The only thing it is lacking is some alarm sound options when the timer is up. Like the really loud beeps/alarms that the iphone built-in alarm/timer has. Saying “time is up” is not jarring enough for some cases.

  • Intermittently talks

    This app drives me crazy. Sadly it's the only talking timer app on the app store.

    I make sure the volume is max and the audio switch is on and the screen is unlocked and the app is not in the background and sometimes it talks and sometimes it doesn't.

    Lately the new quirk is that it won't talk at all until the very end and then it says everything it was supposed to say all at once, UGH!
