Can you please clarify? I've no idea what "lap length" are you talking about. The fonts in the new version are the same, but I consider increasing them in the future versions. ### 4/5 — Suggestion *2024-02-26* I really love this app for keeping track of the expansion and contraction of the universe. But I wish I could have two timers running next to each other simultaneously, one for expansion and one for contraction. ### 5/5 — Perfekter Timer *2024-01-18* genau was ich gesucht habe. Ist sein Geld wert. Ich benutze ihn weil ich zb. alle halbe Stunde erinnert werden muss. Wäre genial wenn man eine Anfangs und Endzeit und Wochentage festlegen könnte, dass zB nur Mon-Di von 07:28 bis 17:00 alle x Minuten ein Signal kommt. Aber ich bin sehr zufrieden. Vielen Dank für die App! **Developer response:** Danke! ☺️ Ich werde die Verbesserungen in Betracht ziehen ### 5/5 — Было бы здорово добавить… *2023-12-28* Программа супер, спасибо. Ещё бы вариант добавить чтобы можно было написать текст уведомления (сейчас просто пишет Повторный+), которое всплывает при повторе, многим думаю удобно будет. Типа - переверни котлеты😀 или поднажми ты сможешь при тренировке и тд. Благодарю!!! **Developer response:** Спасибо! ☺️ Учту пожелания ### 3/5 — The iwatch version has a bad glitch *2023-09-07* I like having this on my iwatch, however the app on the watch has a glitch and doesn’t do any timers over 59 minutes. If I place anything above that, it sticks to 59 minutes. I tried emailing the developer and no response or fix after a while. I like the app, but for this glaring glitch I have to rate lower. **Developer response:** Hi! For that long timers you need to enable notifications, since the app stays active only for 1 hour max. ### 5/5 — То что искал *2023-08-18* Максимально просто и полезно ### 5/5 — Excellent timer app *2023-06-22* I really like this app, but I wish that it still showed the number of laps completed and then time on current lap instead of the total time, eg 2x 0:15 instead of 4:15 (for 2:00 intervals) **Developer response:** Thanks! :) There is such an option, just tap on the displayed time to switch the mode. ### 4/5 — Apple Watch complication requested *2023-05-23* I really enjoying using this app! However This app hasn’t updated since two years ago. Is it supported by developer ? Can there be Apple Watch complication? **Developer response:** Hi, yes it's still supported. We are working on the update, and we will add the complication ### 3/5 — Denkfehler? *2023-03-04* Sobald mein Sperrbildschirm angeht, ist die App-Funktion unterbrochen. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit das zu ändern? Vielen Dank **Developer response:** Ja, ich kenne dieses Problem und versuche es zu beheben. ### 5/5 — Helps with focus & workout *2023-02-04* I had some trouble at first getting notifications when the screen locked but, I found out I had to allow persistent banner notifications and allow it in dnd. It works now with screen lock. This helps me keep pace with my workouts, and i set focus reminders to keep on task. I even use custom recording reminders. I like that I can remind every few seconds. This is really useful! ### 5/5 — Super! *2022-10-01* Genau die Funktion die ich lange gesucht habe! Bitte updaten (Watch Komplikation, Widget). **Developer response:** Danke! Bitte warten Sie auf das Update. Ich arbeite dran ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Удалила приложение *2026-01-25* Я такой сама напишу за 15 мин, а они деньги берут. Ужасный таймер, не работает в фоновом режиме. Невозможно поставить серии или сеты… **Developer response:** Да, берем, и вы напишите и берите, Товарищ Слепченко! А если вам нужен по-настоящему народный, бесплатный таймер, но при этом вполне рабочий - посмотрете на Повторный Таймер (без плюса в конце). Это полностью аналогичное бесплатное приложение, только без роскоши: нет кастомных звуков. Да здравствует Эпл! ### 1/5 — Don’t go for this *2026-01-12* It doesn’t have proper guide to use the app. Not at all recommended and can’t rely on this at all. Atleast hoping the app team will reach out to me in solving this **Developer response:** Hello, my friend! I'm the solo developer of the app and I wish to add a guide, since many users request it. This is already in my todo list. I would reach it as I finish with more important tasks. Take care! ### 1/5 — Useless- I paid for the app, but it doesn’t let you make the alarm go for a time of day *2025-09-22* It only allows the alarm to go off a stopwatch **Developer response:** Periodic Timer is intended to send you short, repeating notifications in a sequence, acting as a repeating timer, not like a scheduled alarm. It does this single feature but in very simple and straightforward way, allowing you to quickly set the time and start alarms. Notifications with customizable sounds are delivered even if the phone is locked. The app is shipped with a collection of sounds of various intensity and duration: from subtle "tick" to various "beeps" and "annoying 30 seconds ring". ### 1/5 — Killed compatibility with older watches *2025-08-31* Taking away compatibility with older watches is despicable. At least make the older version available for those who paid for it because it served a real purpose in our lives. ### 1/5 — Not good *2025-05-05* It doesn’t vibrate long enough I can’t feel it ### 1/5 — Custom file option not working *2024-12-13* Paid for custom alert audio option, but dev it’s not works. **Developer response:** Hi! In version 4.5 file selection is simpler then ever! Just open Sounds tab > touch "+" button > pick your sound (.wav, .mp3, .aiff, .caf, .aif) – it will appear in the list > Select any sound from the list and start the timer. As simple as that! Additionally, 'Periodic Timer +' supports default share dialog: share your sound file from any app and pick 'Periodic Timer +' as a destination. The file would appear in the list. Don't forget to update the app to the latest version! ### 1/5 — Alarm *2024-09-16, version 4.1* How do set the alarm???????? ### 1/5 — Через 30 секунд перестанет работать *2022-07-03* Через 30 секунд перестанет работать При включение звуков издаёт вибрацию которую невозможно отключить ### 1/5 — Alert sounds not working *2020-12-02, version 4.1* Even after paying the fee, there is no alert sound. ### 1/5 — No Interval mode *2020-05-16* Claims to have intervals but just shows the set you are on. An interval would Start ( 3 mins ) Stop followed by the recovery interval Start ( 30 seconds ) Stop. This allows you to set a single countdown timer and repeat. Don’t waste your money like I did! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect workout timer *2026-07-27* Perfect timer for workouts- keeps your music going and your screen locked while your headphones continue to play **Developer response:** Thank you! ### 5/5 — Just what I wanted *2026-02-11* No ads, no nonsense, the pro version is worth the small cost, too. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Just what you need *2026-02-05* I love this app for its simplicity. Could use a couple more sound options though! ### 5/5 — My review *2025-12-08, version 4.5* Good app. I like it ### 5/5 — 我的 *2025-12-04* 真棒👍 ### 5/5 — Très bien *2025-09-06* Application bien pensée et très pratique. Petite amélioration possible : ajouter une explication sur la manière de changer de mode d’affichage pour le compteur, c’est pas très intuitif ### 5/5 — Does what it says *2025-05-30* A very simple app that does what it says it does and does it well. My only grip is the occasional nags to write a review. ### 5/5 — 제안합니다. *2024-09-06* 한번에 두가지 타이머를 시작할 수 있도록 해주세요. 예시 ) 4분타이머와 1시간 타이머 동시 시작. ### 5/5 — Just a Reminder! *2024-05-14* Plain and Simple ### 5/5 — Just a Reminder! *2024-04-28* Plain and Simple --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
