See every timer you've finished in Past Timers and restart any in one tap. Voice-labeled presets, alerts you'll actually hear, and a live Lock Screen countdown. 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 unique name and start them again with one tap; free tier saves 3, or go unlimited for $0.99/year • Past Timers — a history of every timer you've finished, grouped by month and year; tap one to run it again, or save it as a preset (included with the $0.99/year subscription) • 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 • Live Volume & Audio Status — see your current volume right on the running timer, with a gentle nudge when it's low and a heads-up if your alerts might route to a Bluetooth device you won't hear • Keep Screen Awake — a Lock Screen button on the running timer (on by default, adjustable in Settings) keeps the display on while you watch • 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.

- New: Past Timers — a history of every timer you've finished, grouped by month and year. Tap one to run it again, or save it as a preset. (Included with the optional $0.99/year subscription.) - New: a Lock Screen button on the running timer keeps your screen awake — on by default, and adjustable in Settings - The low-volume pop-up is gone. Instead, your current volume and a helpful audio message appear right on the running timer, and the Bluetooth notice now points you to the button that switches back to your iPhone speaker - Fresh round buttons on New Timer, New Preset and the Timer Complete screen, with light haptic feedback throughout - Preset names must now be unique, so you never end up with two presets that look the same - A live "Duration" readout above the time wheels, and a fix for a rare issue where a fast flick of the wheels could start a timer with the wrong length - Every setting now has a "?" that explains what it does
