Ads…. What’s the point when the ad covers 90% of the screen and there’s no way to close it?
- ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions
BUGS or just Bad. Just downloaded this app. Love the visual timer but it’s not coming up in widgets at all and that’s the sole reason I bought it. That and a whole bunch of their features in the app either aren’t working, aren’t showing up, or never worked in the first place and I got scammed 3 bucks. Either way, I’ll be requesting a refund. But don’t waste your money on premium. Just use the basic timer.

Animation does not sync with timer. Fills up too soon on the iPhone XR

So expensive. Love this timer, but the ads will show up BEFORE the timer starts and I work with neurodivergent kids who cannot wait extra time. Was going to purchase but the price is $10!!! Other reviews talk about how it was only $5 not too long ago :( huge disappointment

Ads on an app for people with ADD?!?. I do like the visual but Ads on an app for people with ADD?!? Sure, i can pay for ad free but Please?!? . Not for me.

Very limited options. I love the visual aid of filling up the screen. But there needs to be an option to turn off the narration altogether. Also; it’s hard to save multiple serial alarms. I’m not sure the app supports it, but that’s what I bought it for.

Best option, could be better. It’s the best timer option I have found, but it could be better. I wish the alarm sounds had more options. There isn’t one that is the right balance between not stressful and noticeable. I also wish there was a way to make a series of alarms with clear enough sounds

Good but pushes paid version. I enjoy this app but you can’t make any customization without the paid version which becomes annoying

Love It!. Love this app! It’s so relaxing! Would love the option for background music while the timer is running. (Like water rushing) This app is also advertised for Mac OS, but when I downloaded the Mac version, it does not open! I would love to use the timer in my classroom in addition to personal use!

Great for working with neurodivergent kids.. I work at a pediatric psych hospital, and this timer is such a useful tool for my patients! The app has a simple interface without distractions (I like the option to hide my status bar). The visuals appeal to kiddos with sensory needs. Premium is affordable and definitely worth $4.99. I wish there was an option to customize the colors or at least have improved palettes. Some of the kiddos are triggered by certain colors and prefer others; I’d love to be able to give them more options. Overall, fantastic work devs!

The time. It’s annoying that you can’t go over an hour… and I have screen time for 1 hour and 30 minutes.

good for neurodivergent people. the premium is only $1.99 so it isnt that bad

Great!. Should make a Apple Watch version for sure!
- ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific
Looks neat. Does anyone know if the possible to have the liquid disappear instead of buildIn in the paid version?
- ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific
Love the visual design. Only thing would be if it was possible to ring once the timer had completed if you had this app loaded as a side app or in the background or give some notification that the timer had completed
- ★★★★★flexible customization for personal workflows
Fun visual. I want one more option added to settings. Reverse the fluid direction. Instead of filling the screen as time runs down, can we make it look like there is less fluid as time is also counting down. For a lot more fun!!! Instead of set color schemes can you add the option to fully customize. I would like to choose my own background(maybe even import a photo), choose the fluid color and transparency so it resembles liquid, and choose font color. Maybe even have different font options and sizes for the countdown timer.

Wish it supported iOS shortcuts and task titles.. Cool little app, but it would me more useful if one could integrate it with other apps through Shortcuts, and if one could set the title of the task one is timing.

More Colors?. Great little timer but I need more colors for my students to select. Can you add?
- ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific
Works with toddler!. Got this to help take the stress out of bedtime reading routine, and we love it! The calm alarm sounds are awesome, and the visual is pretty but not too engaging for her. I do wish it had the option to hear trickling water as it fills up though!

Nearly Perfect. A better timer, does it even exist? You could spend forever searching through an ocean of sub-par, unremarkable, and unreliable timer apps... or you could just get this one. I was looking for a manual-repeating interval timer that works, and after spending $20 on a physical timer, I then stumbled upon this gem of an app that actually works better. The visuals with the water rising (or optional draining) is down-right fun, without being overwhelming, or taking away from the necessity of a functioning tool. It is the cherry on top of a hot fudge sundae, while on break, still clocked in at work. Not only does the lifetime upgrade make this tool even more useful, I also think it's wise to not let this kind of attention to detail perish, so I had all the justification I needed to make a purchase. Although I was literally sold on the app already, there is one thing to be desired. I would love to see an option to allow 1 tap to reset the timer, rather than the 2 taps that it currently takes to use the timer in repetition. I also think that a tap counter would be a neat addition. A counter in which you fill up the water as you tap until reaching your target goal would work well with the toolset and style here. Or a target-less tally, where perhaps your taps just splash the water as it's keeping count. If you're reading this, just know that this a great timer, and an app worth purchasing! I am thrilled to have found it. Sincerely, Used2B Timer-less
- ★★★★★stable and reliable performance
Works great, a new & shiny thing for my ADHD. I like this app to use with my issues w/ADHD. Have used Pomodoro technique for a long time and needed a new shiny thing to do the timers. A couple of options I have not been able to find in other apps: 1) When timer hits zero, if the whole screen to flash for some user selected time or even 5 or 10 seconds. This is purely for the more noticeable silent alarm. 2) Option to change to another font. 3) Lastly, suer created color combo. thanks. :)

Developer, Master Students, Researcher. Its great for focus. Great tool though honestly
- ★★★★★overall positive experience· unspecific
Best app. Best app on the app store. All developers should treat their apps with the same care.
- ★★★★★focus timers and Pomodoro make short work sessions achievable
Love this app. As someone who struggles with focus and has downloaded tons of timer/pomodoro apps, this is the ONLY app I’ve kept and continue to use. Use it for everything from work tasks to cooking. It’s simple, visually appealing without being distracting, and affordable. The developers also occasionally update the timer with small tweaks that make it more enjoyable to use. A+++ :)

Focus. This app is my go-to for focus, especially if I’m doing my homework. HOMEWORK. It’s the definition of the worst thing In the WORLD, but when I’m using this app, it actually makes homework a little fun. Because I’m challenged, of course.

Perfect for visual people. I just got this timer for the pomodoro method. I love how it tracks clumps of time without the stress of looking at numbers ticking down. It’s beautiful and just the right amount of movement. I just wish I could put a little pirate ship or duck at the top or something like that.

Simple visual timer. great for ADHD. Thanks. Its a simple way to keep track of time. The visuals are helpful. Some people have time blindness. This helps.

Cool. Kids love watching the water go up and fill the screen. It gets even more fun when displaying it on a large screen! It’s a very smart idea!
