User reviews

Subscription bloat

This is a poor app that forces you to subscribe instead of purchasing functionality. Not worth downloading. Find a different app that doesn’t make you subscribe to anything.

Useful

I like that I can fully customize the times and spoken prompts.

For this price I’d like the voices to be more realistic (or customizable) and the app to be smart enough to take the “s” off the final “one [unit] left”.

I’ve customized it to copy a countdown from a Columbia episode which makes my deadlines infinitely more exciting!

And…leaving this review has made me late. d’oh!

Timed but not to time

All the reminders are based on the time it is “NOW” and how long till till the alarm goes off ( in 15 minutes, or in 13 hours from now)
You can’t set it to go off at 3:15 every Thursday

Pricey and annoying

High price, requires a free, but auto renewing to no free, trial to test, so DO NOT DOWNLOAD, if you forget to cancel sometimes.
Turns down the volume of other apps the whole time it’s running (not just when it’s announcing)
Didn’t find the controls intuitive, not even sure if you can change the voice. (Not going to keep looking, just deleting this app)
There are others, try them.
Don’t like it, but it does work, so 2 stars.

What does SpeakTimer do?

SpeakTimer is a timer application that provides customizable voice alerts. It can function as a countdown timer or a stopwatch, announcing spoken messages at specific points during the timing process or when a timer concludes. This feature helps users stay on track with various activities without needing to constantly check their device.

What are the key features of SpeakTimer?

Key features include customizable voice alerts that can be set at any chosen point or repeated at intervals, the ability to receive voice alerts even when the app is in the background, and support for iOS multitasking. It also offers multiple timers that can be run and viewed simultaneously, along with speaking stopwatches and two timer types: Quick Timer and Custom Timer.

Is SpeakTimer free to use?

The app is free to download and use, offering many features. However, some advanced features, such as hearing speech as timers count down and when they end, and hearing voice alerts when the app is in the background, require a SpeakTimer PRO subscription.

The customizable nature of the voice alerts makes it adaptable to many personal needs.

Does SpeakTimer work with iOS multitasking?

Yes, SpeakTimer is optimized to work with iOS multitasking. This means that timers will continue to run and provide voice alerts even when the app is not actively in the foreground. This ensures that users can rely on the timer for background activities without interruption.
