New: switch timer audio to AirPlay or Bluetooth right from the app. Voice-labeled presets, alerts you'll actually hear, and a live countdown on your Lock Screen.
Simple Timer cuts out the friction between "I need a timer" and "the timer is running."
Tap a preset or dial in a custom duration — hours, minutes, seconds — and go. No menus, no fuss.
FEATURES
• Quick One-Tap Start — tap a saved preset or dial in a custom duration and go
• Reusable Presets — save your go-to timers by name and start them again with one tap; free tier saves 3, or go unlimited for $0.99/year
• Voice or Typed Labels — name any timer by typing or just speaking it, with a Voice Announcements toggle to choose whether it's spoken aloud at completion
• Alerts You'll Actually Hear — a chime plus your label spoken aloud, playing right over silent mode, backed up independently by both a scheduled notification and a system-level alarm
• Keeps Your Music Playing — audio only briefly ducks for the few seconds your alert speaks, then picks right back up
• One-Tap Snooze — right from the Lock Screen or the completion screen
• Lock Screen & Dynamic Island — watch your countdown without unlocking your phone
• AirPlay & Bluetooth Output — switch your timer's audio to your speaker, AirPlay, or a Bluetooth device right from the app
• Bluetooth & Low-Volume Alerts — a heads-up if your timer alerts might route somewhere you won't hear them, with an option to turn the low-volume check off in Settings
• Built-In FAQ — quick answers to common questions from the "?" on any screen, with a direct link to send feedback, or to leave an App Store review
• Light, Dark, and Retro 16-bit Themes
• No Account, No Data Collection — everything stays on your device
Simple Timer doesn't collect your data. Everything stays on your device — no account, no sign-up, no tracking.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
- New: switch your timer's audio to AirPlay or a Bluetooth device right from the app — look for the AirPlay icon on New Timer and while a timer is running
- Leaving a review is now one tap, straight to the App Store — the old in-app star rating is gone, and you may occasionally see a quick prompt asking if you're enjoying the app
- The low-volume reminder no longer interrupts a running timer, and you can turn it off entirely in Settings if you'd rather not be asked
- Improved reliability: fixed a rare issue where a fast duration-picker scroll could start a timer for the wrong length, a crash that could occur right when starting voice input, and the background tick occasionally staying silent after a phone call or other interruption
