■ The "fun timer" you didn't know you needed Meet Miu Tokimachi — a 3D anime girl who thinks waiting shouldn't be boring. Tap start and she's on it. While you wait, she sways, yawns, and (if you leave her alone long enough) straight-up falls asleep. Relatable. Then comes the good part. The last 10 seconds, counted down out loud: "Juuu... kyuuu... Ta-dah! Time's up!" Yes, she counts in Japanese. No, we're not translating it. That's the charm. Some days she drags out the count just to tease you. Some days she's dead precise. Which Miu do you get today? Spin the wheel. ■ One girl, three timers - Kitchen Timer Ramen, boiled eggs, pasta, tea — presets included. Your usual 3-minute cup noodle wait is now quality time. Pro tip: set the alarm to the "charumera" — the legendary horn of Japanese ramen carts. - Pomodoro 25 minutes focus, 5 minutes break, looped automatically. A nostalgic Japanese school chime rings between rounds. Miu keeps quiet while you grind (she gets it), then naps with you on breaks. - Versus Timer Chess, TCGs, werewolf, board games — play-time presets with voice alerts at 10 and 5 minutes left. Finish your turn. ■ About Miu Miu Tokimachi. A little sassy, mostly sleepy, surprisingly supportive. Her family name literally means "waiting for time" — she was born for this job. She's on the other side of the screen, waiting with you. ■ Gal Miu exists (optional) One in-app purchase turns her into a tanned, pink-haired gal — different vibe, same Miu. You might see a side of her you weren't ready for. --- (okay, the serious part) --- FEATURES - 3 timer modes, each remembers its own settings - Voice countdown for the last 10 seconds (2 random styles) - Voice alerts at 10 / 5 / 3 minutes left and halfway (varies by mode) - Alarm sounds: beep / school chime / ramen horn (or silence, you monster) - Local notification when time's up, even with the app in the background - Power-save mode dims the screen when idle (Miu naps, your battery thanks her) - BGM included, on/off remembered per mode - Backgrounds shift with the time of day - UI in English & Japanese (voice is Japanese only) PRICING - Free. Every timer feature is free. - Exactly one in-app purchase (the Gal look). Zero ads. PEACE OF MIND - Fully offline. No account. No data collected. Nothing to worry about. NOTES - Portrait only. - This app makes sound. That is, in fact, the whole point.
