## What is About Timers?

TIMERS THAT ARE ACTUALLY BEAUTIFUL

About Timers is the most visually stunning way to run multiple timers and stopwatches on iPhone and iPad. Born in the kitchen — where managing multiple things at once is the difference between a great meal and a burnt one — but at home everywhere you need precise timing.

MULTIPLE TIMERS, ALL AT ONCE
Run as many timers as you need, simultaneously. Every timer is a visual tile with vibrant gradients, a glowing progress ring, and ambient light that pulses as it counts down. Pasta, sauce, vegetables — all on screen at the same time, each with its own alarm sound and repeat alerts.

STOPWATCHES WITH SPLIT TRACKING
Track laps, rounds, and splits with millisecond precision. Set a target time for each split — the app shows you instantly whether you were faster or slower, in green or red. Ideal for workouts, coaching, board games, or any activity where every second counts.

DEEPLY INTEGRATED INTO iOS
• Home screen widgets in small, medium, and large
• Lock screen widgets — circular progress and rectangular countdown
• Time-sensitive notifications that break through Focus and Do Not Disturb

BEAUTIFUL BY DESIGN
Dozens of color themes and gradient palettes: rainbow, gold, nova, and more. Choose your shape — circle, squircle, or rectangle. Ambient glow effects in gradient or solid styles. 15 custom app icons to match your home screen. This is what a timer app looks like when design actually matters.

ABOUT TIMERS PRO
Upgrade to unlock unlimited timers and stopwatches, lock screen widgets, Focus Mode (hide stopped timers for a cleaner view), alternative app icons, and every new theme added in future updates. Available monthly, yearly, or as a one-time purchase.

### 5/5 — Beautiful app

*2025-02-03*

Beautiful app but was hoping it would have interval functions.

### 1/5 — Don't waste your time downloading this app.

*2024-09-21*

Don't waste your time downloading this app. You need to pay a subscription to use the widgets. The native iOS offers more than that.

### 5/5 — Very good game

*2024-06-12*

Very good game

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2023-04-18*

Great timer app. I’m often looking for a good timer app as apples timer app is severely lacking!

The developer is very attentive and responsive! Implemented my suggestion very quickly!!! Hurray!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words! I try 😊

### 5/5 — Super helpful in the kitchen

*2023-04-05*

I cook most weeknights and I find it super useful to have multiple timers running at the same time. It helps me get everything organized and “done” at the same time.

This app accomplishes that beautifully. It’s very easy to create new timers, and the different colors makes it easy to recognize them at a glance. You can also name the timers, which I like to use to remind me of times/temps. For example “chicken @ 350”

Perhaps more importantly, the developer actively updates the app regularly and is super responsive to feedback.

Definitely deserves 5 stars.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your kind words! It means the world hearing back from users like this! 🥹

### 1/5 — Don’t pay for this app — it doesn’t work.

*2023-03-07*

Frustrating app that takes way longer than feasible just to use. Each time I use, I have to “restore purchase”. The app behaves as if I didn’t pay for pro, so I have to go through the restore process every time.

I emailed the developer about a week ago and no response. If you need multiple timers look elsewhere — this ain’t it.

**Developer response:** This issue is fixed now. I apologize for the inconvenience this caused.

I did not receive your mail. Could you maybe reach out via Twitter: @abouttimers ? I will make it up to you.
