Countdown Color Timer

Read full description

This is just another countdown timer, but with a focus on displaying of halves and quarters on four different views. You can set hours, minutes and seconds. The yellow fields turn red the last 10 seconds. It might be 'useful' to some people to have a stand-alone app for doing just this. To see more apps like this, go to www.discobajas.com

Calendars are for organization. Unmute is for action. We’ve all been there: You put a critical event in your calendar, but when the time comes, a polite little "ding" is the only warning you get. If you’re in the other room or focused on work, that notification is gone forever—and so is your appointment. Standard alarm clocks are great for waking up tomorrow, but they can't handle next month. Calendars handle next month, but they can't wake you up. Unmute fills the gap. It combines the long-term scheduling of a calendar with the urgency of an alarm clock. Why Unmute? Beyond the 24-Hour Cycle: Unlike your standard clock app, Unmute lets you set alarms for specific dates weeks, months, or years in the future. Designed to be Heard: Unmute delivers time-sensitive notifications designed to cut through the noise when a standard calendar ping isn't enough. Critical Reminders: Perfect for the events you absolutely cannot sleep through or overlook. Perfect For: Early Morning Flights: Set an alarm for the exact date of your trip, even if it's months away. Ticket Drops: Don't miss out because you were five minutes late to the site. Irregular Meds: For critical reminders that don't follow a simple daily pattern. Interviews & Meetings: When "being on time" is non-negotiable. Stop relying on polite nudges for life-changing events. Get Unmute.
