Visual Timer vs Slowdial

A simple timer that shows the remaining time as an area you can see. You do not have to read numbers. Just watch the colored part shrink, and you know how much time is left. ■ A dial you can read instantly The sector gets smaller as time runs out. Numbers and tick marks are printed on the face, so you can also check the exact minutes. ■ The whole dial changes Choose 1, 5, 10, 30 or 60 minutes. Pick 1 minute and one full turn takes a minute, so even short times start from a full disc and you can see the whole amount. You can also set any length from 1 to 180 minutes. ■ Set the time by dragging Just drag around the dial. No number pad. ■ Hide the digits You can turn off the remaining-time readout when the area alone is easier to grasp. ■ Full screen Show only the disc, in a large size. Stand the device on a desk and read it from across the room. Works in both portrait and landscape. ■ When time is up Bell, beep or chime, or no sound at all. Vibration can be switched on or off. The alarm sounds even when the silent switch is on. If the timer ends while the app is closed, a notification lets you know. ■ Five colors Red, blue, green, orange and purple. Good for ・Study sessions and pomodoro intervals ・Cooking and housework ・Keeping to time in meetings and presentations ・Helping children get ready or tidy up ・Showing time to a whole room in a classroom

Slowdial shows time as an amount: a colored disc that shrinks as time passes. Children (and grown-ups) can see "how much is left" without reading a clock. NO ADS, EVER. Slowdial never shows an ad — not before the timer, not after it. It is safe to hand to a child or to put in front of a class. THE TIME YOU PICK FILLS THE WHOLE CIRCLE Pick 5 minutes or 45 — the disc starts full either way. Prefer the classic 60-minute dial? Switch with one tap. ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN TOO — FREE The disc keeps shrinking on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, without opening the app. Use it as a laundry timer — watch the washer and dryer count down on your Lock Screen. When time is up you get a sound and a vibration, even with the screen locked.
