Dinner never lands together on its own. The rice finishes while the chicken still has twenty minutes, the beans went on too early, and you are doing the maths at the stove. KitchenRush is a kitchen timer built for whole meals: set one serve time, and every dish gets its own start time and countdown - worked out backwards so everything is ready at the same moment. Instead of juggling separate cooking timers, you plan the meal once. Add each dish with its cook time (or pull one of 14 built-in presets, stage timings included), pick when you want to eat, and KitchenRush tells you exactly when to start each pot and pan - "start the rice in 12 minutes" - then alerts you at every start and every finish. WHAT YOU GET • One serve time, zero maths - the roast, the potatoes and the greens all hit the table hot at 7:00, not in shifts. • A "start now" alert for every dish, so nothing goes on the heat too early or too late. • 14 cook-time presets - turkey, rib roast, salmon, stuffing, pie and more - broken into stages like sear, roast and rest. • USDA safe-minimum temperatures shown right on the presets, because doneness is a thermometer's job, not a clock's. • Pause the whole meal when guests run late - every countdown freezes and reschedules together, and timers survive a force-quit or even a phone reboot. • A history of every meal you have run, with whether it all landed on time. PERFECT FOR • The holiday cook staring down a turkey, gravy, stuffing and three sides that all claim the same oven hour. • Weeknight dinners where the pasta always beats the sauce. • Anyone who cooks from more than one pot and owns exactly one pair of hands. • Hosts who would rather talk to their guests than babysit the stove. WHY NOT JUST USE THE CLOCK APP? Plain timers count down; they do not coordinate. Five separate countdowns still leave you working out when each one should begin. KitchenRush schedules backwards from the serve time, staggers every start for you, and rings at each one - that is the part the Clock app cannot do. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your meals and history stay on your device. No account, no tracking, and the whole app works offline - alerts ring even when your phone is locked and the app is closed. FULL ACCESS KitchenRush Premium unlocks unlimited dishes per meal, saved meal templates you can rerun in one tap, and head-start alerts that warn you a set number of minutes before each dish goes on. Choose a Weekly or Yearly subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Set tonight's serve time and let every dish find its own start.
