I’m excited about the new update!

Our monthly group had been using Poker Timer Pro since 2022. As we kept playing together we got more curious about analytics and how we’re performing. I’d send the log files to those that were curious.

While sending the log history, I was surprised to see a new update (5.0.16). I upgraded, curious about what was in the new version.

The stats detailing ROI and leaderboards are very interesting. One challenge emerged though: the player records weren’t syncing up with my logs.

Ron was INCREDIBLY helpful with taking my input and finding the issue. 5.0.17 promises to be an exciting change from last month.

New Update

I absolutely loved this app but this new format is awful. It’s way more complicated than it needs to be. The timer screen has the seat arrangements and payouts on it, which is not necessary. I lost my voice alerts as well. I really wish I could go back to the previous version. If it’s not broke, don’t fix it!

Edit: I should have given it a chance before writing a review. I was just shocked how different it was. But after using it for our poker tournament, it’s actually really good. I just need to get used it. There are some changes from the old version that I really like too. Like the timer pause after each blind.

New update is more complicated

I’ve had the previous version for 5 years. This new update is a MAJOR change. It took a little getting used to. I found some bugs and they were immediately fixed. I run a monthly tournament with 24 players. This app has everything you need. I do wish there was some simplification efforts. A lot of bells and whistles means complexity. For the average user it may take a week to figure out. But the basics remain. I will say that the developer actually replies to you which is refreshing. Highly suggested.

Great App

First thank you for grandfathering in Poker Timer Pro purchasers, class move! Love the new interface and the remote works much better with near-zero lag. There does seem to be an issue with the TTS speech text box not committing changes, but I'm sure that will be fixed soon. Great app, it really makes ou Monday night tournament feel a little more 'Pro'. One suggestion for a feature - we usually have music playing during our games and a way to control that from the app would be great!
