## What is Happy Timer?

Happy Timer is a hands free kitchen and exercise timer that you control...with your smile!

The Happy Timer comes with both a stopwatch and alarm mode. Whether you are doing planks or baking a cake, never get your phone dirty or sweaty again! 

How to use:
Using advanced facial recognition, you can start, stop, or pause the Happy Timer with a rapid smile! The Happy Timer only works when your front camera is activated and your face is detected. 

- The text goes transparent and shows a silhouette of a face when it can not detect your face.

- The Happy Timer is in stopwatch mode by default, simply smile and you are off to the races!

- To switch to countdown mode, press the time text and set the minutes and seconds. A quick flash of your smile and your going counting down baby!
