  • Great app

    👍
  • I suppose this app will do.

    I picked this app because of its relatively small size. It is actually one of the first time I download a mobile app from a small writer . I am using this to time my Christmas string lights this year . Thank you for writing this app. I was originally going to try and write an application myself using Swift and XCode. Then, I tried to find a mobile compiler to do such a thing. I don’t know why I did not think to download an APP from the AppStore.

    Anyway, thank you for publishing this app.

  • Used to be my go-to app

    I loved the original GUI for the simplicity of the app. I don’t want the new interface because I don’t need the complication.
    What has destroyed my dependence on this app is the full page advertisements that pop up to obscure the original interface. When I need to add more time I’m hitting the advert instead which causes Safari to open and the light goes out. I end up having to close Safari and the app in order to be able to use it again.
    It’s unacceptable. I don’t mind the developer earning revenue with adds but they have destroyed the usefulness of the app.
    I can not recommend this app any longer.

    Thanks for being a long-time user. We are sorry that the full screen ads are showing up at unpredictable timing. Please contact us through the in-app feedback. We will be able to provide a solution to solve the problem for you.
  • AppAdvice download

    immediately after AppAdvice promotion the developer turns this into “in app purchase” app. Not cool or ethical

    Developer Response

    We didn’t actually ask AppAdvice to feature this app this time. We changed the price and somehow AppAdvice picked it up automatically. Please send us an in-app feedback so we can better assist you. Thanks.
  • Widget

    The widget is gone with this new version. It was so handy to launch the app from the widgets home. Could you add it back? Thank you.

    Developer Response

    New widgets are going to be added in version 6.0.1.
  • Debugging

    The biggest problem that can be taken is that when it comes out of the program, it no longer works and the phone light turns off, if it is right that you leave the program and the light and timer continue to work and serve, do not get tired at all

  • Great App!

    Do you think you could add a feature where you can pause the timer and the light goes off, but then start the timer again and it comes back on? That would be great.

  • No intensity

    I was “adjusting” the light intensity, but it really doesn’t do much.

    Developer Response

    It is caused by an iOS bug. We have reported this issue to Apple. Hopefully they will fix this soon. Meanwhile, rebooting your iPhone may help.
  • Interesting!

    But would be really good if it also worked as ‘alarm clock’: the light comes on when it ends the count, or at specific time settings. Like: I set the wake up time at 7:00, and the light comes on at 7:00
    As for flashing light: I have some torch light apps that have the option to flash, one of these in Morse code. So I suspect there might be some option for flashing/blinking?
    Thank you anyway!

    Thanks for the response.
    Actually, it would not be a problem for me: overnight I charge the phone anyway, and I could set it to ‘never lock’ for the night.... not exactly ideal, but a possibility.
    But a question: isn’t the iphone clock working as an alarm no matter the status? I also think I have seen some other clock apps working as alarms?

    Developer Response

    It’s a fascinating idea. But unfortunately it wouldn’t work well because iOS doesn’t allow the app the turn the light on if the screen is locked or the app is put in background. To turn the light on at 7am, the phone screen has to be on throughout the night. Clocks work, yes. Check out my other app 1Timer - Voice Timer (which is free right now), it works when the screen is locked. But it’s just impossible to get the flashlight turned on when the screen is locked.
  • Doesn’t have flashlight per second in the timer?

    ?? What does the app do? There is no flashing light?

    Developer Response

    Flashlight here means torchlight. This app does not flash the flashlight. Feel free to get a refund from Apple. Thanks.
