Eggsy Egg Timer helps you boil your eggs to perfection—just the way you like them, anytime, anywhere. How does it work? • This app calculates the perfect boiling time based on your egg's size, preferred doneness, starting temperature, and your altitude. Why altitude? • Boiling time changes significantly with altitude. The higher you are above sea level, the longer it takes to boil an egg. Don’t worry—this app handles all the calculations for you.
