About

Popcorn Timer

Features
Read full description

Popcorn Timer listens to your pot and tells you the exact moment to take it off the heat. No guessing, no counting seconds in your head. Popcorn is done when the popping stops — not when a timer runs out. Every batch is different: kernel age, oil temperature, pot size, burner power. Popcorn Timer detects each pop through the microphone, tracks how fast they're coming, and chimes when the popping tapers off — before anything burns. WHAT YOU SEE - Live pop counter and doneness meter - Pop rate graph — watch the batch peak and fade - Silence gauge counting down to the finish call - Elapsed timer, precise to a tenth of a second Adjust how long a silence has to run before the batch counts as done. Shorter for a lighter batch, longer to catch every last kernel. Audio is processed on your device to detect pops. Nothing is recorded or sent anywhere.
