Nice App! Clean interface. Simple, beautiful, elegant.

I’ve been looking for an app with a soft, pleasing appearance. I love it that the screen is not busy with a bunch of extraneous design elements.
To the developer: wonderful job! For sure, I would love it if you would make one that fills the iPad screen, instead of only having the ability to enlarge it from the phone format.

Your Kitchen Timer Search is Over

This timer is application is artisanal and well designed.

Up to 15 timers can be programmed and act independently to count not only down, but then up after the programmed time has been reached.
Activation of timers is “one touch” and makes tracking cooking times a breeze. You can automate the times for various processes, taking the guess work out of your cooking times, kind of like the process they use at McDonalds when they need to precision-time their French Fries.

Once you start to really use this app, you begin to realize what a “killer app” it is for the kitchen.

Very nice with one exception

This is a fantastic application and is indeed my go-to time app. However there is one major flat so I feel, and that is the alarms which are extremely obnoxious don’t shut off once you acknowledge the timer. In other words timer goes off you select the button to say “yes I realize time is up“ but the alarm continues to go off until it finishes it cycle. Worse yet the default alarm is the most obnoxious of them all and I cannot put into words how embarrassing it is to be at my office or at a hospital or someplace and simply not be able to even shut this alarm off. Well I doubt they will ever do this enhancement please consider either having a no alarm option or one that says shut the alarm off as soon as I acknowledge and turn off the timer. Ugh

I put off updating my OS for the sake of this app

This app works as advertised without my fiddling. I like having multiple preset timers. I like being able to set timers with increments of seconds--important in workouts. I like the selection of sounds. I often want a one-ding chime like those on old-fashioned wind-up timers, because I might *not* want to stop what I'm doing immediately to turn off the timer. (Surprisingly, the Apple timer lacks such a sound.) When iOS notified me this app wouldn't work with the next OS update, I put off updating and refrained from quitting the app. For months. Glad to know about the app's update. Just bought the Ultimate Bundle, mostly to support the developer of this app which has been so useful to me for so many years (though the extra sounds are nice).

One of my favorite ones

Got a notice that told me a developer needed to update one of my favorite apps as they hadn't in a while. Came here to figure out why and if a great app was dying. Maybe I'd pay...purchase an upgrade...but the guy has decided you're not worth it I bet. It's you people. I wouldn't make apps for cheap and ungrateful whiners either. Thanks for ruining a simple and elegant, free timer.
