## What is MicroWave Timer?

Imagine, you are hungry, very hungry ... You take out your dish from the freezer, you put it mechanically in your microwave oven and you read the indications on the packaging of your dish. 10 min to 1000 W, perfect!
Yes, but here you go, your oven is 800W and you do not want to miss the cooking of your dish: this app gives you a conversion of the duration depending on the oven power of the recipe and your oven.

The times may also vary depending on the container used, the amount to be heated. Please refer to the manual of your device.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2021-11-26, version 2111.13*

Used it quite a bit, and then I got a new microwave. The wattage was too high for the app. I messaged the creator and they responded right back and updated it. Excellent app!

**Developer response:** Thank you for this review :)

### 5/5 — Not happy

*2021-06-17*

Sorry dev but this new look is like stepping back in time 😔

### 4/5 — More reasonable wattage/time options would lead to 5 stars

*2021-03-27*

It’s a simple yet unique app addressing a very basic need but the wattage and time increments seem to be entirely arbitrary. I’ve never seen microwave ovens or cooking instructions with wattages in 25W increments, while my own microwave has a timer that can be set in 10-second increments, not 15-second increments. I would either look for a realistic discrete selection of wattages and times, or simply allow for unit increments, maybe just by typing digits instead of selecting predefined values.

### 5/5 — Microwave app

*2021-03-10*

Great help

**Developer response:** Thanks a lot for your review :)

### 3/5 — Improvements

*2020-08-06*

Only reason not more stars is it would benefit from having a timer function

**Developer response:** Hi, 
Yes, I’ll definitely work on this feature but I’m currently working on 2 new apps :)
But yes, it’s right on my board !

### 4/5 — It's ok bit adverts are annoying

*2020-06-26*

I donated money to the developer expecting the adverts to be removed. They wern’t so no point in paying for this app.

**Developer response:** There is no in-app purchase to remove the ads so I don’t understand your comment. But perhaps I’ll add one for that, good idea !

### 3/5 — No 1800W option

*2020-01-24, version 2001.19.1*

The app itself works fine but it’s missing an option for 1800 watt microwaves (which mine is), making it effectively useless.

**Developer response:** Hi
I will add this option for a next version
Regards

### 5/5 — Does just what it says

*2020-01-03*

Bottom text

### 5/5 — Super Helpful App

*2019-11-30, version 3.1*

I never seem to have a microwave that matches the wattage on the packaging.  This makes it easy to make sure your food is done but not over cooked.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review :-)
Regards
