Just Timers

It's basically unusable on the watch. It actually just went off even though I haven't used the app in at least two days and the complications won't show correctly, amongst other things. The phone app seems fine however.

This is by far one of the best apps that I have used. The integration with Shortcuts is top-notch.

This app is amazing 1. Its free version is excellent and has zero ads 2. Upgrading is cheap ($5 one-time purchase), and in return you get interval timers and URL Call backs 3. The best shortcut integration out of any timer app. You can start, stop, restart, create, etc Best part, developer is still updating and is active. I found this app, because I saw the dev respond to someone’s reddit post about wanting a timer that does xyz. If you’re looking for an affordable good timers app, you’re in the right place

Update: I imported V2 timers as mentioned on the app description page, which did restore my old timers. The app behavior isn’t always consistent (for example, I just deleted a couple of timers, which then almost immediately un-deleted themselves upon app re-launch). I have had difficulty resetting timers in the past (like via my Apple Watch). This app doesn’t collect personal info like other multitimer apps in the market, so it’s worth dealing with.

[Original review redacted] First: I apologize for piling on with the negativity. I was out of line. So, after beta testing and trying both of your official releases of 2.x and 3.x, I found that it wasn’t remotely similar to the original release, which I had just paid for at the time, years ago. After the 2.0 release came out, I was bothered that it wasn’t anything like what I had just paid for. Never mind the bugs. I have realized that this just isn’t the right app for me anymore, and I took my issue out on you, the developer, who is clearly trying their best. With your latest release, I did not give it a fair chance and rated it unfairly. I do believe this is the right app for A LOT of people. That said, I have a suggestion that I think will be helpful for everyone, both old and new users alike. Premade templates of all of the different types of timers the app offers. The screenshot of the multicolored timers in the App Store, looked very appealing. However, between the learning curve and the time it takes to create these from scratch, the task can seem overwhelming. At the very least, clear explanations of how each setting should behave, tips to generate the different timers, and contradictions we may run into would be HUGE. Especially with the symbol-only settings. It’s possible that what many perceive as bugs are from an incorrect expectation of how each setting is to act.

Version 3 is much more performant, less buggy, and seems not to consume battery despite widgets and live activities. Really appreciating the upgrade so far

Concept is great, but I’ve run into so many bugs in the first few hours of using that it’s essentially un-usable. Negative timers, alerts not going off, timers with intervals spontaneously resetting to the beginning, etc. I do need a timer app with shortcuts integration so I hope this one improves.

Concept is great. End times, intervals, etc. but very buggy, though. Bought the upgrade hoping to use more features but there’s just too much interference with bugs. Wishing the developer luck with improving the reliability, as the features (should they work) are excellent.

After paying for the different tiers this app offers, I can safely say it has progressively gotten worse over time since first using this app until now February 8th 2023. The updates I’ve seen have created more bugs than fixes. Whenever I try to add the vibrating function for my watch, it doesn’t work. I have to use critical alerts. Sometimes when I try to edit a timer, it’ll randomly add minutes to the timer even when I’m adjusting the Seconds. Moreover, adding repeating alerts for any timer does not work, I’ve tried adding 1-10 second secondary alerts and they don’t work the first time when creating a timer. The timers will eventually work after consistently running the same newly created timers a few times, but this ruins any attempt to create multiple timers when cooking or doing multiple things at the same time while trying to manage all of them as you won’t get alerts for these newer timers that have just been created. I had high hopes for this app when I first started using it when it had less functions but allowed for multiple timers to be made. Things have gotten worse and now I understand why it has such poor reviews and rating. Please please update this app and I will add a better review and I’m almost positive this will make money if it can be fixed.

As said by other reviewers, there is a great app to be found here but it’s too half baked right now. Because of sound alarm bugs, syncing issues, and unpolished functionality such as x-callback integration and rest API, the app is unusable now and had to find a workaround for my needs elsewhere. It’s a shame because it could be really great… I’m not very optimistic right now because I’ve tried the TestFlight demos and they had a lot more bugs, but hey maybe this changes! If it does I’ll update my review.
