I love this timing app and use it daily to take a power nap's and do short timings on work projects. It is simple to use, intuitive, and does exactly what I need it to do. I even like the sounds that are used at the end of the timer. The user interface is fantastic. If you are looking for a stopwatch that has seconds, this app is not for you. There's plenty of other apps that do that well. This is more of a general timer to help you keep track of projects you're working on, cooking times in the kitchen, or power naps (like I use it for). I'm so glad that the developer updated this App so that it will work on iOS 11. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to use it any longer with the new software update. But it works! It's awesome! Don't hesitate to get this app. Get it, use it, love it!

Two problems with the simple timer. First, I can't make a 30 second timer or any timer below a minute. Even if I set the seconds first, say at 55 seconds, I can't then change the minute setting to zero. If it were possible to do this, then the other problem would be: the change of seconds is too close to Recent. Trying to slide the seconds bar gets too often interrupted by accidentally sliding over Recents, and then you have to try it again. The wheel would be easier, especially with the limitation that seconds are in 5 second increments. One final thing: the sounds offered are fairly obnoxious. Nothing simple and pleasant in case you want a sound that doesn't attract a lot of attention. I don't mind the sounds offered but I'd like the options of simple sounds. Most of them are musical and one in particular takes a second or more to even begin. For a timer app that has essentially one function it fails at several things.

Pronto is a simple and very well designed (countdown) timer application. It can serve as a cooking timer or as an alert for anything, e.g. time to get dressed and head out to an appointment; time to check the laundry machine; time to make a phone call, time for the TV show, etc.There is a choice of about 15 alert tones. My go-to’s alerts are called: “Funky”, “Sax”, and “News” (a softer, more subdued tone). Funky is a middle-of-the-road tone and is my usual default setting. I use Sax for a more jarring tone — for more critical task reminders.I love the fact that the app is default-set to “nag” you every minute that passes, until you shut it off. Most apps in this genre lack this feature - and this is really is important, if by chance you are in another room and miss the initial alert.I still use this app *constantly* after 8 years!

This timer app is VERY easy to use, and the screen is not obnoxious. I work where there are scheduled 15 minute breaks, and this as become the only timer I use for that purpose. I am farsighted, but with this display, I can take my glasses off and still see the “countdown”. This makes my breaks that much gratifying as it literally takes pressure off my head.
