Multiple timer types, suitable for different scenarios: 1. Countdown Timer: A basic countdown timer that can be preset for easy reuse. 2. Quick Timer: Also a basic timer. The difference is that the time for this timer must be specified at startup. 3. Stopwatch Timer: Used for timing and can set notification reminders at multiple points. Suitable for common time-tracking scenarios. 4. Pomodoro Timer: A timer that integrates the Pomodoro Technique. Very suitable for work and study. Paired with focus mode and white noise, the effect is better. 5. Interval Timer: Combines multiple timers into one powerful timer. This timer will sound an alert at the start of each timer and automatically begin the next timer when the current one is complete. This timer is suitable for workouts. 6. Step-by-Step Timer: Combines multiple timers into one powerful timer. This timer will sound an alert when each timer is complete and then pause. The next timer requires manual activation by the user. With simple settings, it can be used for HIIT training. 7. Clock. Features a full-screen flip clock style and provides hourly chime functions. Special Features: 1. Auxiliary Reminders. This function uses text-to-speech for voice broadcasting, announcing the current time or numbers. Reminder times can be set at any point within the countdown timer's duration and support repeated broadcasting. 2. Auto-Repeat. After the countdown ends, it will automatically repeat, with customizable repeat counts and repeat intervals. 3. Automated Tasks. Start or stop a specific timer when another timer begins or ends; or at a certain time on the clock, regularly start or stop a specific timer. 4. Timer Log: Each use of a timer generates a log, serving as a record. The log list can be viewed in the timer's settings interface. 5. Statistical Analysis: Analyzes the usage log data of all timers in the currently selected panel, categorizing them by timer tag and type, displayed as bar charts and pie charts. It also shows the total focus duration and the total number of Pomodoros completed using the Pomodoro timer.
