Year Timer

[Study Timer] I created a timer app that can calculate time. The biggest difference from other apps is that you can enter the title of goal setting and where you can calculate up to the year in kitchen timer format. We will introduce the main functions. [Home function] This is the first function that appears when the app is displayed. (Main screen) A list of set times and titles is displayed here. [Timer addition function] You can enter the timer information you want to set by pressing the plus button on the main screen. You can save it with save. [Timer detail function] You can actually start the timer by clicking the timer you want to see details from the list on the main screen.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: MAMP Viewer at none against Year Timer's shown. Year Timer's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 9 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
