Reset vs repeated timer, light
1) Timer seems to reset each time it’s used. Suggest update to permit a repeat of the time entered prior. (Ex: If I want a 2-min timer, it blinks that it’s done, I touch the screen to stop the timer, the timer should show 2-mins again. It should not auto-reset.) 2) Flashing red light for timer buzzer. Suggest an alternative of a solid green light to show that the timer has gone off, rather than the flashing and the red. Thank you!

HI, Thanks for the review and suggestions. We will consider these and issue an update if we decide to make any changes. Update: The app will now remember the last time that was set when it is reopened
Works great
Works so good it gave my son a seizure when it was time to get off the games.
Visual alert from across the room.
Needed a timer that a could see across the room when I complete a workout.
This worked well.
Works while I’m listening to itunes as well.

Only works if you tie up your iPhone
This app only works if it's the only thing running on your iPhone and your iPhone remains on the entire time.
So if you want to set a flash reminder for 3 hours, you have to keep your iPhone on (goodbye batteries) with the app on the screen for 3 hours. If you press your home button, so you can use your phone for something else, the timer freezes. If your iPhone shuts off after 2 minutes (or however long you set the auto lock) the timer freezes.

Yes, this app is not designed to work in the background. However, we do have a more advanced version II that does work in the background and allows for more time settings and options. Please note however, that the flashing alarm will obviously only work when the app is not in background but the audio alarm will.
is there a glitch
Just bought this tried opening it does not open it seems like it's just a screen shot of someone's iPhone. very upsetting.

This has now been fixed.
Basic app, serves purpose!
I wanted a basic timer/flash app for hearing impaired children--this works perfect. I like that you can set it for under a minute. Yes, you have to take your phone off of auto-lock, but not really a surprise.
No settings for alert, lock screen, etc.
When screen locks, timer cannot send flashing alert. So, every time you use the timer in light-only mode, you have to manually turn off phone locking and set background light to remain on and then reset them when you finish timing.
Why just 5 hours???
I was desperately hoping I could use this for an alarm clock but only goes up to a max of 5 hours. What a silly limitation. Makes this app significantly less useful.
Response from developer
The current version allows for up to 9 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds
