Works great

The recent update fixes several bugs and adds the custom interval override feature. Just tap on the timer for the keyboard to enter a custom interval between 1 second and 10 minutes.

Glad you're enjoying the app!

Latest breaks iPad 17.7.10?

This used to work well on my old iPad but the latest update is broken. The start button doesn’t seem to do anything anymore 😔

Needs improvement

Whoever created it definitely stop caring for it. I hope he can take some maintenance on it and removed the 1 sec interval now, I wish I did never updated this is an step backward

Did not work

Restarted safari and MacBook after installing to attempt a fix, but unfortunately, it just wouldn’t refresh my tab. No settings or management tools to see if there was anything I was doing wrong.
