"Just astonishingly fun." — John Gruber A BETTER EVERYDAY TIMER I dreamt of a timer I could use every day that would simplify time and make the most of every moment it counted. Inspired by the simple egg timer, Timer more honestly represents time as a single dimension. No hours or seconds—just minutes. There's nowhere to get lost. Scroll to set. Tap to start. Get back to life. STOPWATCH & OVERSHOOT When time expires, it doesn't stop at 0. Timer flips and begins to count up. This turns out to be pretty useful if you missed the alarm and don't know how much time has elapsed or if you cook and just need another minute without the hassle of setting another timer. Or scroll down to 0, tap, and it becomes a stopwatch ready to measure any length of time. PLAYS LIKE A GAME, WORKS LIKE AN APP Next generation user interface designed and built in 3D with animation and sounds inspired by video games. BIG & READABLE Time you can read from across the room. Optional setting to keep your screen on during countdowns. SKINS Skins change the whole look and feel of the app. New skins and collaborations every season so you can keep it fresh. WIDGETS Drop a custom timer on your home screen for fast, one tap access to daily timers for coffee brewing, workouts, and other daily routines.

Nice looking app (definitely not boring) but..

I would like to be able to select the timer by hours, not minutes. e g: after 59 minutes, instead of 60 minutes to say 1h etc. Also, make it more than 90 minutes and add support for live activities so the timer can go into the Dynamic Island. If all of this suggestions would be added to this app, I will happily use it like the other apps (!weather, !vibes)

Love this app, wish it had options over 90 minutes.

I adore the !Boring apps, and have actually gotten a subscription that covers all of them. They’re gorgeous and functional and I love that I can now replace the default icons on the pull down menu with icons for them. I do however have one issue with this app in particular… it only allows timers of 90 minutes or less. I have medication that requires 2 hour timers, and this does make using the app for these things more difficult. I hope that the developers continue to improve on their product and consider the option of longer timers to make it more functional. Overall, for anything in that above time span, it’s great and I totally recommend it.

These apps are wonderful, and in a category of their own, as far as interaction, polish, design, and functionality! They are a joy to use! I use a couple of them every day!My family uses timers a lot because two of my children are under the age of four and it is the only thing that could help short attention spans focus on short tasks. That said, I had to find an alternative solution because while all the members of my house use the same timer app, this app DOES NOT SUPPORT family sharing for an app purchases, and these numbers can get very high! $15 for life for each member for a timer is a bit steep for our needsBeautiful app but prohibitively expensive for an entire family.

Really like the concept… not accessible. Photosensitive for seizures.

If you have epilepsy or photosensitivity don’t download this app. I’ve been fooling around with the apps from this developer tonight and I love All of them (accept this one) I’m autistic/have adhd and visuals and audio make things so much more fun and easy to learn for me. I opened this app last out of the four and scrolled a bit to hear the clicking sounds and then set to 1 min to see if the timer would be loud enough to wake me (I’m a very sound sleeper). The numbers immediately started flashing between black and white on my iPad screen and I had the brightness up and had to close the app rapidly. I have photosensitive seizures have already had several in the past month. This is dangerous to put out without a warning.
