Make timing as easy as it’s ever been with SpeakTimer: the timer that speaks.
SpeakTimer is a handy app that can be used as a personal assistant to keep you on track with a plethora of day-to-day activities in life, such as cooking, revision, workouts or taking a nap.
It fulfils this through its ability to deliver speech at any points you choose, its high level of customisability to suit your specific needs, and the ability to see multiple timers at once.
Voice alerts are fully customisable: the speech to be spoken is completely up to you, and so is the time at which it happens - the app is optimised to make the process of adding these very simple. You can choose to add single voice alerts here and there, or to repeat speech at regular intervals as the timer counts down. You do not have to add speech if you do not want to.
After downloading the app, you will be able to enjoy the many features SpeakTimer has to offer (note that some will require a SpeakTimer PRO subscription):
- Hear speech as timers count down and when they end
- Hear voice alerts when the app is in the background
- Works with iOS multitasking
- Sleek, clean design
- Extremely simple to use
- Two types of timer: Quick Timer (to quickly set a timer up) and Custom Timer (to customise what the timer says and when)
- Speaking stopwatches
- Store and run timers simultaneously
- View active timers in isolation
- Reorder, delete and reset timers easily
- Edit timers
- ‘Jump To’ feature (allows you to jump to any point in the timer)
- Change the navigation bar colour
- Times to the second
- Tailor timers, the interface and the app to your preferences easily

Every time that you change the countdown time, you lose all of the interval data and have to set it up again. Would be more useful if you could set up your preferred intervals and announcements for a particular timer and then use that timer to countdown whatever length of time you need.
Simple yet useful
AnnieCrumpet278
An extremely useful app that is unlike anything else I have ever seen. It serves its purpose of letting you know a timer is done (or almost done) without you having to look at your device, which can sometimes be hard to do if you’re doing something that requires attention like cooking or distracting, as you may see notifications that take you off task by looking at the device, and is also bothersome. This app takes all of that away and therefore allows you to do whatever you want to do much more efficiently.
Disappointing

I was disappointed - it doesn’t seem to work when the app isnt up on the screen - it keeps counting but there’s no voice, even at the end of the time. It also doesn’t have any decent visual representation of the time like showing it big on screen. Also I thought the most obvious basic voice prompt would be to count down the minutes as in ‘5mins remaining...4mins...’ etc but it seems you can only pic multiple promots to say the same thing each time. I found it useless for my needs and even forgot that it was on so it didn’t help me at all - better off with the phone’s own timer as at least then you can see it on the lock screen.
Pretty Good

This app is actually pretty useful. The customisable timers e.g. reading the time at certain points, make this far better than other timers I have used/seen.
Various minor bug fixes and improvements.
