### 4/5 — Useful

*2025-08-07, version 6.3*

I was happy to find this app. I use it to expose photographic contact prints with my phone torch. The UI is a bit odd and not the most intuitive, but once you realise that you can make new timers and set them to second increments it makes sense. I use it in conjunction with a red tinted screen to be darkroom safe.

Love the idea of having a new game for my kids

### 3/5 — Missed opportunity

*2024-09-21, version 6.3*

I was hoping I might be able to use this app to expose photographic contact prints, I kind of expected the ability to manually program in a countdown time from 1sec up to whatever. 
But there is only presets, the minimum of which is 30 secs. It’s of no use to me I’m afraid. 
I wanted it for a very specific use I’ll grant you, but it seems like an oversight not to have any level of fine control over times.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-11-27*

👍

### 5/5 — I suppose this app will do.

*2023-09-30*

I picked this app because of its relatively small size. It is actually one of the first time I download a mobile app from a small writer . I am using this to time my Christmas string lights this year . Thank you for writing this app. I was originally going to try and write an application myself using Swift and XCode. Then, I tried to find a mobile compiler to do such a thing. I don’t know why I did not think to download an APP from the AppStore.

Anyway, thank you for publishing this app.

### 3/5 — New UI

*2021-12-21, version 6.0.8*

Sorry, but the new UI is hideous. Thankfully you’ve given the ability to switch to the old UI

### 1/5 — Used to be my go-to app

*2021-11-21*

I loved the original GUI for the simplicity of the app. I don’t want the new interface because I don’t need the complication. 
What has destroyed my dependence on this app is the full page advertisements that pop up to obscure the original interface. When I need to add more time I’m hitting the advert instead which causes Safari to open and the light goes out. I end up having to close Safari and the app in order to be able to use it again. 
It’s unacceptable. I don’t mind the developer earning revenue with adds but they have destroyed the usefulness of the app. 
I can not recommend this app any longer.

**Developer response:** Thanks for being a long-time user. We are sorry that the full screen ads are showing up at unpredictable timing. Please contact us through the in-app feedback. We will be able to provide a solution to solve the problem for you.

### 1/5 — AppAdvice download

*2021-09-01*

immediately after AppAdvice  promotion the developer turns this into “in app purchase” app. Not cool or ethical

**Developer response:** We didn’t actually ask AppAdvice to feature this app this time. We changed the price and somehow AppAdvice picked it up automatically. Please send us an in-app feedback so we can better assist you. Thanks.

### 4/5 — Widget

*2021-08-31*

The widget is gone with this new version.  It was so handy to launch the app from the widgets home.  Could you add it back?  Thank you.

**Developer response:** New widgets are going to be added in version 6.0.1.

### 5/5 — 제가 찾던 앱이에요!

*2020-09-22*

자기 전에 책 읽을 때 타이머로 플래쉬 켜두고
저도 모르게 잠들어도 불이 자동으로 꺼져서 너무 좋아요!! 디자인도 계산기 스러운게 간결해요! 천원으로 광고없이 깔끔한게 돈이 안 아까워요 :)
한 가지 바라는 점은 핸드폰 화면을 꺼도 조명이 켜져있도록 하는거? 사실 큰 문제는 아닌 것 같네요 
아무튼 감사드림다 :D
