Very good, little apps
Just wish I could copy the cooking times from my iPhone to my iPad
Can’t adjust after timer starts
Wish it would let me check off the steps that finished and adjust to while finish time
Too noisy
Can’t understand there is no facility to customise the alarm sound.
A simple option to adjust the volume or turn it off entirely would encourage me to use the app - I just find the current alarm too annoying to use the app, sorry.

Extremely useful
This app has one job, and does it perfectly. It makes juggling different parts of recipes so easy. The ability to put together a one-off meal is one I use all the time. The only thing I long for is the the ability to store the recipe data on iCloud – I’d like to be able to use the app on my iPad, because my eyesight isn’t what it was, but I don’t want to type it all in again. That small quibble aside, it’s just great.

Excellent timer
Very useful timer and easy to set up once you’ve had a bit of practice. The user guides are very well written and comprehensive.
I find the ability to set the required ready time is most useful and this sets it apart from other timers I’ve tested
Thanks

Great idea, needs a few tweaks
I use this for Christmas dinner, but it would be great if it let me do four things. 1/ Add a bit more time to an item when the timer is running but the cook hasn’t begun. 2/show the temperatures of all the items in a menu to see if there’s some way to share two meals in the same oven by altering times or shelves. Perhaps by colouring each item by temperature? Or just showing the temp and convection mode for each dish. 3/export to iCal the entire cook to remind you to visit the app 4/sync the meals to my iPads to free up the phone

Great app but needs pause
Great app, just what I want but it needs a pause function. When something is not quite ready you want to put it back in for another 20mins…. How to do that without pause?
Response from developer
The main feature of the app is to schedule the start time of steps so that all the items in your meal finish together. Pausing the timer would completely break that feature. Either all steps currently in progress would be extended by the length of the pause, or extending just one step would cause that item to finish later than all the others.
Easy Cooking App
The app is not easy to use. I was unable to determine how to properly enter menu items and times to plan my meal. I do not recommend this app.
Response from developer
I'm sorry to hear you found the app difficult to use. There is a comprehensive user guide and tutorial available from https://hacknicity.com/easycookingtimer/ which explains how the app works.
Useful but...
Would be 5* if there was the option to pause it. Sometimes I need a minute to do a step but there’s no way to tell the app to pause the timer and then unpause when I’ve done it!
Fantastic App!
Well worth the money, makes cooking so much easier
