Thyme - A Modern Kitchen Timer 4+

Beautiful, perfectly elegant presentation. Those reviewers complaining about the alarm sound level being too low just need to turn up their volume, but a separate, in-app volume control would be much better. The biggest problem is that the alarm makes no sound if the screen is locked, which alarm clock apps get around so this developer should be able to fix this. Indeed, I'd definitely give five stars if these two issues were addressed. It would also be a nice feature is one could set a timer for less than one minute.

I love this app, and appreciate its simplicity. It's a lifesaver at family events: the visuals are instantly understandable, and I can let go of the stress of remembering what needs to come off the heat, or get turned or basted, when. I use it instead of the iClock on my phone, despite the convenience of Siri, because the dot moving around the circle is (again) easier to grasp in a split second than numbers ticking down.

The multiple timers all on the same screen are useful in many other settings: timing henna applications for 2 people, tracking time to another coat of paint AND minutes til the second half begins.

A great app. And, somehow, I seem to have missed the dancing Herbie??!!

It is good at timing multiple events, but... I would like the bell to be louder. If there is a way to change the “done” noise, I haven’t found it. I am curious as to why a simple time would need access to Cellular Data (I was told when opening the app that it didn’t have access to cellular data but I could fix that in Settings. This leads to a rant that too many developers want to invade app users privacy with access to pictures, camera, cellular data streams and more. Please leave me alone!
