Multi Timer keeps several countdowns running side by side on one screen, each with its own name, color and time. Pasta, sauce and garlic bread can each have their own timer, or a workout can hold one timer per set. On the Multi tab every timer starts, pauses and resets on its own, a progress bar shows how much of each one is used up, and a card swipes left to delete it. Ten color tags tell the timers apart at a glance. Sequential mode runs the list from top to bottom: when one timer ends, the next one starts by itself, so a routine of warm-up, sets and rest goes through without touching the phone. The Timer tab is a single large circular countdown. Tap the circle to pick hours, minutes and seconds, or nudge the time up or down by ten seconds before you start. Presets store a set of timers under a name, such as a cooking set or a laundry set. A preset runs on its own screen without changing the timers on the Multi tab, and timers inside a preset can be added, edited or removed. You start with three preset slots, more slots can be opened from the presets screen, and buying Remove Ads lifts the preset limit. When a timer starts, its countdown appears on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. If the app is in the background, a notification arrives when the timer ends, and with the app open the phone vibrates for about five seconds. Sound and vibration can each be switched off in Settings, and remaining time is recalculated when you come back to the app. The app's screens are available in nine languages: English, Korean, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Spanish, French, German and Portuguese.
