Review summary

BBQ Timer is praised for its lock-screen timer/stopwatch, lightweight and simple design, and solid alarm/interval timer that suits BBQ and general timing needs. Users love not having to unlock the phone to check progress and appreciate the loud alarm sound. However, several reviews miss the old scrolling timer and find the new time-entry method confusing, and some users request seconds precision and multi-timer support. The app remains lightweight and functional for quick timing tasks, with feature requests still pending.

Pros

Lock screen visibility and control of the timer/stopwatch via a lockscreen widget
Lightweight, simple design with no bloat
Reliable alarm/interval timer features for cooking and general timing
Great alarm sound
Versatile use for timing beyond BBQ (general timer/stopwatch)

Cons

Time-entry UI changed away from the scrolling timer; users miss the old scrolling timer
Requests for seconds precision and multi-timer support

2022-09-30	Su*****	Didnt know i needed it but now i know... This is a really good idea.. Simple and unique. Please dont make a huge fat heavy app out of it, we dont like bloat. The alarm sound is really great..good thinking on that.. update..... The new way you enter your time is a bit wacky.. I think I like the scroll method better... I seem to have a little trouble getting used to this..

2021-02-11	Br*****	I looked through like the first 20 apps on the play store trying to find one with a decent stopwatch widget and could barely find one. I had to Google around awhile before I found this one. Does the trick, nice!
