Review summary

Time Rise - Digital hourglass is praised for its minimalist design, intuitive flipping controls, and versatile use cases including exercise and study timers. Users appreciate the developer's support and the unique color-based time visualization. However, multiple users report difficulties with sound settings, desire options to hide precise countdowns, and suggest additional features like Pomodoro mode and screen orientation lock. The reset button's necessity is questioned due to built-in flip resets, and some display issues occur when animations are disabled.

Pros

Minimalistic and intuitive design with smooth colors and animations
Effective and simple motion controls (flipping the phone) for timer interaction
Suitable and well-suited for various uses such as stretching, yoga, exercise timing, pomodoro technique, and games
Great developer support and responsiveness to user queries
Unique and appealing visual representation of time with widening color bar mimicking an hourglass

Cons

Sound notifications can be tricky to configure and sometimes do not work as expected
No option to hide the exact countdown time, some users desire a more ambiguous display
Lack of certain convenience features like Pomodoro mode, lock orientation during timer running, and full screen mode
Reset button functionality is confusing or redundant to some users due to the flip-to-reset feature
Some users experienced issues when animations are disabled in developer settings, affecting the timer display

2024-10-22	Ri*****	Seems like a really sharp looking app but sound doesn't work for me. --Updare-- After studying the app further and looking tutorial I figured out the sound. It's a little tricky. But it works. 4 stars for app and 1 star for video tutorial. You should put reference to audio tutorial in the welcome screens.
