Good start, but work still needed
May 27, 2013 I’ve tested dozens of timer apps for use in professional tradeshow and conference settings, and this one is better than most. But work still needs to be done before it’s good enough to use in the field: 1. A 3-second start-up splash screen with the app’s title and logo. Really? 2. No support for switching from landscape to portrait. Half of the app ONLY runs in landscape and the other half ONLY runs in portrait. Really? 3. There MUST be an option to have the app start counting UP when the timer is done -- rather than just resetting or displaying a “time’s up” message. Speakers must be able to see how far they’re going over time -- so the count-up upon timeout feature is critical.more -
Jun 17, 2020 This is EXACTLY what I wanted! I had to download a dozen other timer apps before I ended up finding this one, now I can delete the rest because this one is it! Large display, option to turn on ticking sound, easy to start and reset and even a visual "Time's Up!" message displayed on the screen when time's over. Very pleased!more -
Update crashes on launch
Oct 21, 2017 I LOVED this app, but the new update crashes on launch, on an iPad 2 running iOS 9. Update: after a couple times deleting and reinstalling the app, it’s back to the timer I love! Just wish it went longer than 99 mins. -
Dec 12, 2018 This app is very basic but exactly what I need to do countdowns in my classroom. The audible last 5 seconds is great and the final "time's up" sign is perfect for what we're doing in class. -
Best timer yet!
Aug 10, 2016 Exactly what I was looking for! I spent over 15 mins searching for a good timer to alert a speaker when he is about to go over his talk/part at the Kingdom Hall. The numbers are HUGE, and the best part is the giant red screen saying "time's up." Thank you for an awesome app that I will use on a regular basis.more

Sounds
Mar 19, 2021 If I paid for an app I'd expect some selection different but this only has the default bell sound. Additionally the volume is so low even when paired to a Bluetooth speaker it is not loud at all. -
Oct 20, 2019 The controls have great potential but are presently broken. Cannot change direction of swipe while holding down to reverse number direction. -
Dec 7, 2020 I had high hopes for this one as it had 4.6 / 5.0 and came here to read the reviews just like you are now. What they don't tell you is, whenever the app is counting down if you happen to receive a phone call or text message and you answer that call or reply to the message the count down stops and the app closes. Absolutely absurd and I wish I had of known that prior to downloading it. It's a shame because the timer would get a 4/5 rating from me otherwisemore

Jul 6, 2019 So simple; makes me smile. Can easily adjust numbers by touching top or bottom of numbers to go up or down. Wish could go higher than 99 minutes. Wish could change color. Wish at end, time would continue to inform how long time ran out. Still 5 stars for me.more

Feb 6, 2020 Love the large numbers, but there no sound at the end when it stop. %^( -
Nov 24, 2020 I really really hope,this gets to the developer,for making necessary updates,I love this app so far especially the sound feature,been trying out alot of apps none of them had this feature BUT it would mean alot if there was a 'static'/'record' feature too,to figure out how many productive hours,I had in one day. Thank you. :)more -
Oct 24, 2019 Almost exactly what I'm looking for. Only if we could set timers right after the 1st countdown is set. For example, after the 10 minute countdown it continues to the next 10 min or 20 minutes that I set. I'm gonna use this for our church service.more -
Jul 11, 2020 The app suites to my basic need only feature I need is to increase the time interval of tick in UNIT STYLE of display. Current tick interval of may be 1 second.... myself should need ability to change the interval and can be put 2, 3, 4 or more seconds. One more feature required on lower priority of showing application as small box in corner of the mobile screen on top of other application. The small box that contains 09 application can be move in anywhere on mobile screen. Thanks for appmore -
Sep 11, 2019 A very helpful app. I hope there is the continuous mode where it can start to count in negative when the time is over.... If that is added, 5 star will be given :)

Dec 12, 2019 A good speaker timer, but loses track if the phone is blanked. Also, it would be nice if it used true full- screen mode, as the phone's navigation buttons/bar are still visible, which is distracting. -
Jul 23, 2019 I like the minimalistic design and the handful of settings that you can change, but I wish the alarm would still sound when the app is in the background or if the phone is locked. -
Feb 3, 2021 Really like the app. However I would very much like the option to start the count-up timer starting from a set time. When I want to track a process that has already started e.g. 10min ago. -
Feb 17, 2021 Its appearance was impressing but it has a setback. You cant use it for long durations . For example, not more than 99 minutes

What’s Groovy
Beautiful design, easy to use. I wish it would ring the bell even if running in the background.

What’s Subpar
The purchase display made it look like you could have a minute count without the distracting seconds count. But I can see no way to set this up. The last thing I want while giving a presentation is to have the seconds count flying by!

PERFECT. Exactly what we needed. Good ticking sound just adds that much more drama. There's no mistaking when the timer ends with a very quick and defined sound. Nice work.

Love this app!!!
I am a preacher and speaker. I have used every countdown timer app in the store for keeping my sermons and speeches on track. Minimalistic Countdown Timer is by far the BEST!!! It is easy to use, big display for easy viewing and a bright red background when it's time to stop talking. I also use this app in meetings to keep them on track. -
nice simple basic timer. I use it for timing individual field event attempts in track meets. easy to use. easy to see. cheap, portable, self powered solution ... when coupled with a tablet.

Super simple and super effective. Makes for a great workout timer or any other type of repeating timer.

It's really a minimal timer that just do what it must do 😉 I would be happy if I see theses changes: 1. None full screen mode 2. Improvement in handy gustures
