About

Kitchen Timer

Read full description

The Kitchen Timer app is a small application that I created for my wife, who owns and works in a restaurant. It does not require a login, it does not collect data, and it works on iPads and iPhones. It saves money for those who need kitchen timers, since they often break and need to be replaced. The app can also run in the background, showing a notification when each timer expires.
