User reviews

Users appreciate Easy Timer for its simplicity, fast setup, visible remaining time display, and effective notifications. It is praised for minimalist design and usefulness for work routines. However, multiple users note limitations such as inability to set time with seconds, lack of volume or alarm sound customization, quiet notifications that can be missed, and a reminder message that is too small and brief. Overall, it's seen as a straightforward and convenient timer with room for improvement in sound and time input flexibility.

Pros

Simple and easy to use with quick preset time buttons.
Shows remaining time directly in the extension icon for convenience.
Minimalist and efficient design with fast setup.
Helpful sound notification that alerts when time is up.
Suitable for work use and as a Pomodoro alternative due to flexible timing.

Cons

Time can only be set in 5-minute increments; lacks seconds setting.
Alarm sound is too quiet and sometimes hard to hear, especially when distracted or with other audio playing.
Limited ability to customize or choose different alarm sounds.
Reminder message is too small and disappears too quickly, making it hard to read.
