### 4/5 — No vibration option

*2017-08-02, version 1.2*

Wish there would be a vibration alarm. Since I'm using this to correct posture every 30min I don't want a sound to interrupt me every half hour. Especially since I'm a music teacher.

### 4/5 — Needs VIBRATE Function

*2015-12-27, version 1.1.1*

Needs VIBRATE Function

### 4/5 — Fabulous timer

*2012-11-26, version 1.1.1*

Almost perfect for a therapist who needs reminders of when to begin and end sessions. To make it perfect for me would be an addition of a meditation chime.  This would be more discrete then the current available sounds, plus more soothing.

### 5/5 — 凄くいい

*2012-11-20*

まさに求めていたアプリです！
普通のアラームのスヌーズとは異なり、24時間を15分おきに任意のタイミングで連続したアラームがセットできるアプリは他にない気がします。
本当は15分と固定されていない方が個人的には好ましかったのですが、一時間を四分割する事での視覚的な分かりやすさは評価できるポイントだと思います。
バックグラウンドでも動くし愛用してます！

### 5/5 — Travis

*2012-09-25, version 1.1.1*

Very good.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2012-04-28, version 1.1*

Came by to find the fix for reminders not popping up after ios5 upgrade; been using habitimer for months and love it.  Works perfectly!  Interface is brilliant for casually creating up to dozens of alarms in a snap.

### 5/5 — Helps Get the Habit!

*2012-04-17, version 1.1*

If you want to keep a tight handle on good habits and essential repeat tasks this is THE app. Get it now and get onto the habit... of anything!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2012-04-04, version 1.1*

I really love the simplicity of this app. It does just what I need it to do without a lot of complications. When my phone is on silent/vibrate at work, it still goes off. Although you have to have the phone out to see it as it only vibrates for a second. The alarm goes off 4 times a day, every day; it's perfect!

### 5/5 — Incredibly helpful!

*2012-03-19, version 1.1*

As a student, I found this app not only very useful to help me remember to regularly take medication, but also I found it was useful to help me keep focused on certain tasks :) very pleased!

### 4/5 — Klingeltöne sind reine Geschmacksache

*2012-01-18, version 1.1*

das ist das Risiko - .... für mich ist da leider nichts dabei ...(unter den ca 15 zum Teil etwas breiten sounds) - ist wirklich eher für Pillen und Pflichten  -  aber vom technischen ist die app super gelöst!

### 5/5 — In the finest Apple tradition

*2011-11-13, version 1.1*

HabiTimer does precisely what it claims to do with no frills or fancy extras. If you need interval timers I've seen nothing that touches it for simple elegance.

### 5/5 — Extremely Helpful!

*2011-11-10, version 1.1*

The reason I was looking for an app like this was because I was going into the hospital for a procedure and they wanted me to take all sorts of medication, evenly spaced, for a few days leading up to it. I needed a timer where I could set several reminder times and HabiTimer fit the bill, perfectly. I really love the feature that allows me to move set times forward or backward because there were times when I would not have my phone with me and a little time passed before I took my next dose of medication. I just hit one button and move all the set times in that group forward. That is sooooo cool! 

I have a few daily reminders I use it for now and I'm just absolutely and truly happy with this app.

Thank you very much!

### 1/5 — Warning

*2016-07-17, version 1.1.1*

Unfortunately this app does not work. It was created in 2012 but not updated. Paid £0.79. 
Should be illegal!!

### 1/5 — No sound!! Total fail!!

*2016-03-28, version 1.1.1*

Other than the fact that there are no instructions whatsoever nor a way to contact the developer, there is also no sound happening when the "alarm" 'goes off'.
Good concept, but total fail on use-ability. What happened here? Where is the Apple App Store Quality Control?!?!

### 1/5 — Simply does not work

*2015-10-09, version 1.1.1*

No sound from this app. I bought it to remind me of stuff and I have tried all kinds of ways to get it to work but nothing. Waste of time.

### 1/5 — Not reminding properly

*2011-01-24, version 1.0.1*

Good idea, but alarm reminders are popping up with generic My Alarm title.

### 2/5 — Doesn't work properly with later IOS

*2015-08-04, version 1.1.1*

It used to work well with my iPhone 3, but with iPhone 4 2015 its chimes stall, so you won't always receive a chime at the appropriate times, then when you access the slider on your iPhone all the stalled chimes chime at once. Useless. Its unfortunate as it used to be really good.

### 2/5 — Good concept, but bad timing execution

*2013-05-11, version 1.1.1*

You can schedule alarms only once an hour. For example, if you schedule a timer at 10 AM, you can't have another timer at 10:30 AM. The only way to do that is to create two timers and flip back and forth between them. That's impractical. This app should allow you to enter times manually, rather than picking them from radio buttons.

### 2/5 — Simple

*2013-03-04, version 1.1.1*

It has its uses but it is so simple it should be a free app.

### 3/5 — Good but not enough options

*2018-12-16, version 1.2*

Good basic app to set time reminders at 15 min intervals but cant select which days to do.

### 3/5 — Great Concept

*2012-10-13, version 1.1.1*

I work at a desk all day and get very engrossed in my work.   Sometimes hours go by before I have a need to get up.   My needs are very simple.  I need something to remind me to stretch every thirty minutes.   I would prefer that this reminder be discrete, as I work in a group environment, but the ability to vary the reminders would be useful, as it doesn't take me long to become oblivious to different sounds or vibrations.  This app seems simple to set up and very customizable.   I can see myself using it as a stretch reminder and a "drink your water" reminder, but it is lacking a couple of features that I would like to see.   I would like the option of setting vibrate as an option, and the ability to control the strength and duration of the vibration.   I would also like to be able to add my own sounds as reminders.

### 3/5 — Sounds needed

*2011-06-19, version 1.0.1*

You need sounds

### 5/5 — Fantastic! Only ONE major request..

*2024-06-17, version 1.4*

This app is so simple and PERFECT for setting up daily reminders throughout the day at specific 15 minute intervals, for things like taking medication, or just reminding you of the time every hour or every 2 hours, etc. and my ONLY major request to the developer would be to add the ability to adjust a daily reminder to ONLY OCCUR on specific days of the week! I work a strange schedule each day of the week, but at my job it’s SUPER helpful for this app to be able to remind me 15 min before the hour each hour I’m at work. The issue is I don’t want it to remind me on my days off, or on days I have a different schedule. I was having dinner with family and this thing kept going off each hour because I forget to disable and re-enable it every other day. Would be SO HELPFUL to say “only on Mondays, Wednesday, and Friday” and another on that’s “only on the weekend” etc.

Other than that, I love this app!

### 5/5 — Extremely useful app, and I would like a feature added

*2023-12-31, version 1.3*

This app is great; I use it to distribute notifications for recurring habits I would like to practice little and often such as stretches.  There is, however, one thing which I would to suggest it implement as a feature in an update: 

I think it would be really helpful to be able to offset certain of the alarms by a few minutes, so that more can be fit in, and/or variations on notifications can be added.

### 5/5 — A GREAT little app!

*2020-10-08, version 1.2*

I’ve been using this app for years. It is so simple to use. It can be used for any activity you need to do more than once a day. I use it mostly for taking Zicam when I get a cold (every 3 hours!) and other meds that must be taken throughout the day and night. Love, Love, Love it!

### 5/5 — Superb

*2020-04-28, version 1.2*

Elegantly fulfills it’s purpose.  There is no other app that fits this special niche.

### 5/5 — VERY NICE!! 😸

*2017-10-21, version 1.2*

i love this app! there are A LOT of reminder apps out there that are unnecessarily complicated. this one blows them all away!! i use this for med dosage reminders. i take a lot of meds, some on 8 hour dosage and some on 6 hour dosage and i take them every day. most of the time i used to forget. now i have this app to help me and i’m taking them on time! after ios 11 my old app which was also one of a kind would not work anymore. thank you sooo much for habitimer app!!!

### 5/5 — So useful!

*2017-05-24, version 1.2*

So glad to see this updated. This app works great for reminding me to take my medication. I also have it set up to fulfill a function that my Apple Watch is missing, and give me a tap on the hour.

### 5/5 — Unique approach

*2016-09-16, version 1.1.1*

Very good at what it does- a rare gem of a utility app!

### 5/5 — Sehr wertvoll!

*2016-06-30, version 1.1.1*

Immer wieder gibt es für mich Apps, die eine bestimmte Nische ganz toll füllen. HabiTimer ist solch eine App. Wenn ich an etwas mehrmals am Tag erinnert werden möchte, kann ich das bei Apples "Erinnerungen" App leider nur sehr kompliziert erreichen. Mit dieser App geht es ganz leicht, allerdings jeweils nur zur vollen Viertelstunde. Diese Genauigkeit reicht mir aber völlig aus.

### 5/5 — Simple, good.

*2014-01-30, version 1.1.1*

.

### 5/5 — Best app for consistent timers and reminders

*2013-07-11, version 1.1.1*

I work in a hospital with patients who need reminders for medicine and to shift positions. This is so easy to set up without having to set an alarm every 15 or 30 minutes manually. I love it and so do the patients!
