Sniper Timer

A timer you can watch tick. Sniper Timer shows time passing with animation. A sniper leaves a bullet hole every second, an elephant and a cat walk across the screen leaving footprints, and fireworks and cherry blossoms fill the view. You can see time moving without reading a single number. 11 animations with sound effects Sniper / Elephant March / Cat Walk / Hearts / Colorful Stars / Snow / Bubbles / Rocket / Confetti / Fireworks / Sakura Each has its own sound effect. Turn sounds on or off and choose how often they play (every 1-30 seconds). One-tap scenes 20 scenes including tea, soft-boiled egg, cup noodles, toothbrushing, nap, Pomodoro, meditation, plank, Tabata HIIT and shogi. Each one sets the time, mode and animation at once. You can create your own scenes too. Four modes - Countdown: start from a preset, and nudge it from -30s to +1m while it runs - Count-up: a stopwatch with laps - Interval: repeat work and rest for workouts - Shogi clock: a two-player game clock Handy details - Get a notification when time is up, even with the app closed - Record your own voice as the alarm (up to 30 seconds, save several) - The screen stays on while a timer runs - Shows the end time; the clock changes color at 10 and 3 seconds left - Dark mode For toothbrushing, tidying up, cooking, studying, workouts and shogi games. Waiting gets a little more fun.
