Das möchte ich ja eben nicht, dafür habe ich doch das Widget!! Der zweite Punkt ist das ich über die Applewatch die verschiedenen Zeiten nicht anwählen kann um neu zu starten, oder die gerade abgelaufene Zeit neu zu starten. Und wenn, dann nur ein paar Sekunden bevor die Funktion auf der Watch verschwindet.... Da müsste meiner Meinung nach unbedingt dran gearbeitet werden!! ### 3/5 — Funktioniert, aber leider keine Antwort auf meine Anfrage bekommen *2024-11-02* Die App funktioniert gut. Eins stört mich aber extrem, dass die App sich jedesmal öffnet, sobald ich ein Button des Widgets drücke. Ein Widget sollte eigentlich eine zügige und einfache Bedienung versprechen. Quasi ein Druck und es läuft. So bringt mir das Widget nichts. Denn das war meine Voraussetzung. Ich habe dies beim Entwickler nachgefragt, aber keine Antwort erhalten. ### 4/5 — Shortcuts support *2024-03-27* Please add the option to dynamically set a timer from shortcuts by supplying the name of the timer and the time that the timer is countdown down to. I would like to tie this into a shortcuts automation ### 3/5 — It’s okay. *2024-03-21* I like how this works on the top of my screen. I wish you could set it to repeatedly loop rather than having to press start every time and I do not understand why the flag thing appears with a time that is not relevant. If those two things were fixed I would give it 5⭐️ hands down. In the meantime, I give it 3. ### 2/5 — Naja *2024-01-13, version 2.5.5* Leider kein Klingelton im Lautlos-Modus. Zudem ist der Banner in der der Mitteilungszentrale im Fokus schwarz mit schwarzer Schrift, sodass man nix lesen kann! Auch gibt es keine Wiederholung des Timers. Alles in allem chic, aber für mich nutzlos. ### 4/5 — Good timer live activity *2023-06-09* I like the live activity for this timer app, it allows you to set a prominent countdown (in the dynamic island for those with one) which can be helpful for day planning. I wish there were an option to just show minutes and hide seconds in the dynamic island. The live activity lockscreen widget needs to be redesigned—it shows the countdown and end time (great), but it also displays the name of the alarm sound (eg. “Japanese Temple Bell”) which is unnecessary and an odd thing to display on the small live activity. Hope they add some options for that. Also, the timer icon used in the live activity is static, it would be more useful if it displayed a progress bar/circle to represent the amount of timer left like the iOS timer does. ### 3/5 — Default timer app has better basic functionality *2022-11-04* The live activity banner stretches to take over the entire top header obscuring the time, signal strength and battery indicators, which isn’t helpful. Also a long press on the timer doesn’t allow you to reset or stop the timer. ### 4/5 — Recht gut *2022-11-04* Generell eine Tolle app. Zwei Sachen aber die fehlen. Einmal, das ich App nicht vom Widget aus Pausieren kann ohne selber in die App zu gehen. Zweitens, das wenn ich den Timer auf 1 Stunde stelle, kein Pause Alarm alle 20min einstellen kann. Sonst bin ich aber sehr zufrieden. Vielleicht kommt das alles noch 👍 ### 2/5 — Oh well, waste three bucks *2022-03-31* Widget doesn’t fit? Buttons 3 and 4 overlap, time remaining and time done overlap, can’t read… stick with the free version it’s good enough. ### 3/5 — Könnte man verbessern *2021-03-24, version 1.9.2* Wäre schön wenn man die Timer auch in Form anpassen könnte ### 3/5 — Widget not working *2020-11-23* Like the app but it will not give me the option to add as a widget. Main reason I purchased the pro version was to have this as a widget on a Lock Screen but it will not work. **Developer response:** Hello, thanks for your feedback. The Widget can be added at the bottom of the today widget view. You have to tap on „Edit“ and then you can add the widget. Unfortunately the old style today widget is not compatible with the new iOS 14 Widgets, so I have to implement it from scratch. On the Tab „Widget“ in the App you can set the the values of the timers which are visible as buttons in the widget. If you have any further questions, please contact me via the feedback section in the app on the settings tab. Thanks! ### 3/5 — Widget? *2020-10-09, version 1.9.2* How do I add this app to a widget tile? ### 2/5 — Oh well. *2020-08-27* I reeeeeeally liked this app. Bought it because it had the best features and I liked the sounds. Everything was fine for a couple weeks. Now, about 2-4 times/month, I had to manually restore purchases or half the stuff I was using wouldn’t work. Annoying, but bearable. Tonight, tho, I give up. All of the custom timers I had set up are gone. All the widgets gone. Etc. Instead of bothering to create them all again, I will be moving on. Will miss the temple bell, but not the headaches. **Developer response:** Hey, thanks for your Feedback and sorry for the inconvenience. I am sorry for the bugs. Would you please contact me via the Feedback section or via email: tobiashauss@web.de I really would like to figure out the issues to Fix the Bugs and help you. Thanks! ### 4/5 — It’s growing potential.. *2019-12-04* However, the create timer section needs to be moved to a separate page as someone else suggested, and the running timers’ fonts need to be larger. The main screen is currently too cluttered and it’s difficult to find and focus on what you’re looking for (how much time is left on your currently running timer). Take a look at Timer+ app for workflow and ui tips. Those two things get reworked and you get more purchases and accolades by app review sites and then, yet more purchases. —— Update: UI improvements look awesome! We can now show/hide the create timer area, the timer fonts are bigger, and I love the new feature of showing the time the timer will end. I didn’t see the new icon for show running timers, I just see Show Running / Show All (those words but no icon). I’ve also purchased the bundle but am having difficulty setting a song from my Apple Music library for a timer’s in-app alarm, it thinks I need to download the songs but they are all already downloaded it’s just not seeing them..? Ps: the swipe to show/hide the create menu might be a tad more slick if it showed a slightly slower sliding animation. Think “electric slide” (but not too slow). Right now it’s so fast it’s teleporting itself up and down my screen :) Loving the improvements! **Developer response:** *Update 04.12. - 2* Could you please send me an email to tobiashauss@web.de to inspect the in app alarm issue? Or you can use the feedback section in the app. *Update 04.12.* Please check the new version (1.9.1). I added a feature to swipe up to hide the create timer view and just show the list of all the timers. Also the font is larger now. What do you think? *Update 04.12.* Hi, thanks for your Feedback. I am currently thinking about a little design refresh. Maybe to show / hide the create timer section. You have the ability to filter the timers to show only running timers for more overview. Just tap on the „show running“ button in the upper right corner. ### 3/5 — Es fehlt *2019-10-10* Die Möglichkeit den Timer von der Apple Watch aus zu starten und zu stoppen. Dann wäre es perfekt. **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Dein Feedback. Die Timer von der Apple Watch zu starten habe ich schon länger in Planung, leider jedoch aus Zeitgründen bisher nicht implementiert. Kann es leider nicht versprechen. Du kannst aber auch mittels Siri Shortcuts Deine Timer von der Apple Watch aus starten. Dazu einfach in der App auf den Reiter "Kurzbefehle" und dann kannst Du für all Deine Timer Kurzbefehle zum Starten, Beenden & Status anlegen. Trotzdem weiterhin viel Spaß mit der App! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App mit Potenzial und einem Showstopper *2024-05-02, version 2.5.5* Sehr schöne App mit viel Potenzial. Gerade die Integration des Dynamic Island gefällt mir sehr gut. Ärgerlicherweise werden Timer leider nur dort angezeigt, wenn sie aus der App gestartet werden, nicht aber wenn sie aus einer Automation initiiert werden. /Update: Ich muss leider meine Rezension leider korrigieren. Gerade verschwanden vor meinen Augen 3 meiner 4 gespeicherten Timer, die nicht einmal liefen. Die App soll mir Arbeit abnehmen und nicht machen. ### 1/5 — Not working *2024-02-12, version 2.5.5* I want my money back!! The app does not work properly! When I close the app is still on the dynamic island. Even when I force close it. ### 1/5 — Not good *2019-11-12* Not happy with this app I needed to play music while the timer is counting down. I also wanted to display so my students can see progress. **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your Feedback. I am sorry that you are unhappy with the app. The music is only playing when the timer ends and when the app is in foreground (opened). When you edit the timer, the timer is displayed larger. Please contact me via the feedback section in the app or send an email to tobiashauss@web.de and let me help you solve the issues. Thanks 😊 ### 1/5 — Not work with watch app *2019-11-12* Bought it and found out it doesn’t sync properly with the watch app on my series 5 watch!😡 Wasted my $! **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for your Feedback. I am sorry that you are unhappy with the app. The watch app only displays the last created timer. What exactly is not working? Could you please contact me via the feedback section in the app or send an email to tobiashauss@web.de and let me help you solve the issues. Thanks 😊 ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2019-09-13* I need it to play from iTunes after a countdown. Unfortunately it’s too buggy to do so! That’s £0.79 I’ll never see again! **Developer response:** ** Update 12.11.19 ** Unfortunately you did not contact me 😕 ** Hi, I am sorry that it does not work. Could you please contact me via the feedback section or email: tobiashauss@web.de to help you solve the issue. Thanks 😊 ### 1/5 — Not as expected *2019-07-23* Not as advertised. Was expecting an alarm app to play music until a certain time not a timer **Developer response:** Hi, I am sorry that you are unhappy with the timer. App. timer. is a timer app where you can play music as an in App Alarm when your timer is finished and the App is in foreground. This behaviour is advertised for the specific feature on the settings tab in the App: „Please note that music as in App Alarm is only played when timer. is in foreground.“ Unfortunatly this is a limitation due to drm Copyrights. Please contact me via the Feedback section in the App or via E-Mail at tobiashauss@web.de if you have any further questions. ### 1/5 — Täuschung *2019-02-25, version 1.8.1* App kann für den angegebenen Preis kein iTunes spielen.. auch nach mehrmaligem Upgrade ging es beim mir nicht.. bin gespannt, wie viel ich jetzt am Ende für diesen Reinfall zahlen muss ### 1/5 — Worst ever *2018-10-14* I made a purchase whiling using the app. I had no clue of what’s the purchase was for and how to use that! Scamming! **Developer response:** I am sorry for the inconvenience. I changed the behavior for in app purchases. I am sorry that you are unhappy with the purchase. Please contact me via E-Mail: tobiashauss@web.de and I will help you resolving the issue. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2018-09-20* Rubbish when I tried to open it, it just closed again - no matter how many times I tried **Developer response:** Hi, could you please check the new version? The crash should be fixed now. I am really sorry for the issue. ### 2/5 — Needs work *2024-03-17* I want to like the app, but the watch version is finicky, showing whatever it wants and the main app interface is dated. Adjusting timers can only be done by dragging the wonky wheel pickers; you can't type in your timer values to set a time. Also, the wheel picker is glitchy and makes the labels (like 'Hours' and 'Min.') drag-able so they get in the way (those shouldn't be interactive!) ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love the app *2025-01-09* There’s just one problem if the creator is reading this please make the widgets smaller like every time you start the timer on one of the timer it’s automatically shows only one the timer u clicked to start on the smaller widget ### 5/5 — Klasse Timer *2021-01-11* Ein pragmatischer, ein fach zu bedienender Timer der alle Wünsche erfüllt die man an eine solche App haben kann. Schon übersichtlich und konfigurierbar. Gefällt mir! 👍 ### 5/5 — Löscht nach Siri Shortcut Timer *2020-11-22* Top Support von Entwickler! **Developer response:** Hi, danke für dein Feedback. Das Problem habe ich so bisher noch nicht gesehen. Könntest du dich bitte über die Feedback Sektion in der App melden oder mir eine email an tobiashauss@web.de Schicken? Würde das natürlich gerne analysieren und den Fehler beheben, damit die App wieder Spaß macht und Siri Shortcuts weiterhin nutzbar sind. Vielen Dank schon mal ### 5/5 — Fonctionnelle *2020-11-09* Très pratique d’avoir le décompte du temps restant à sa montre 👍 ### 5/5 — 👍👍👍👍👍 *2020-07-01, version 1.9.2* Super WidgetTimer! ### 5/5 — Great app! *2020-07-01* Gets the job done! ### 5/5 — Klasse App 👍🏻 *2020-05-08, version 1.9.1* Wirklich zu empfehlen! ### 5/5 — Top Timer! *2020-01-17* Die App bietet einen alles was man für einen Multitimer benötigt. Tolles Design und einfache Bedienung auch durch Siri Shortcuts. Mehrere Timer sind gleichzeitig einstellbar, die man dann abspeichern und bearbeiten kann. Nutze sie täglich. Sehr gelungen, weiter so 👍🏻 **Developer response:** 🙏🏻 ### 5/5 — Super Multitimer *2019-11-12, version 1.9* Super Multitimer Mehrere Timer gleichzeitig, danach hatte ich gesucht 👍🏻 ### 5/5 — 😍❤️👌💖😘💗🎉💕 *2019-11-10, version 1.9* I really love ❤️ this app --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
