Big Timer
A big, simple countdown
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Set a time and go — a full-screen countdown built to be read from across the room, with an alarm that keeps the screen awake until you're done.
Big Timer is a countdown timer built around one idea: the time should be huge and easy to read from anywhere in the room.
• Full-screen digits, big enough to read from across a kitchen, gym, or classroom
• One-tap presets from 1 to 60 minutes, or dial in a custom hours/minutes/seconds duration
• Tap the display to pause and resume, or add extra time on the fly
• Keeps your screen awake for the entire countdown, so it's always visible
• A clear alarm with haptics when time's up — plus background notifications if you step away, even with the silent switch on
• Works on iPhone and iPad
No accounts, no ads, no data collected. Just a timer.
