This hourglass timing app has been produced with beautiful artwork and an intricate sand simulation that the user can interact with. The hourglasses time from a second to a full day.
*Choose from a selection of animating hourglasses, with 5 hourglasses in different artistic styles to choose from.
*Interact with the sand. With up to 55,000 particles of sand moving at once, you can swipe and tilt the screen to see the grains bounce around the hourglass.
*Treat the timer like a real hourglass and simply invert it to start the countdown again or tilt it onto its side to pause the time.
*Choose the size of the sand. From tiny grains, barely visible to the human eye, to giant tumbling blocks, you decide how the sand looks as it falls.
*Choose the size of the clocks and know exactly how long you have left to the hundredth of a second or remove the clocks entirely and time by the amount of sand left to run.
*Time up to 24 hours. From 1 second to 86,399, the sand will adjust from a slow drip, to a high velocity cascade.
Choose from 7 alarms, each more annoying than the last, or choose blissful, blissful silence.

A colleague recomand me to get a sandglass to time myself on certain task. I tried a few sandglass app and this one is the very best.
- This app is user friendly - the first design is free. - the designs are nice. - I didn’t notice any adds. - it reverse the time when you flip your phone like a real sandglass. - you can set the time you want and you really see the sand flow.
I highly recommend this app for anyone who may need it.
