Review summary

Reviewers praise the app for being easy to use and helpful for improving speed-stacking times, with cost advantages and ad-free feel. However, pervasive ads, touch/start-stop responsiveness issues, limited input controls, and occasional reliability bugs are the top drawbacks. Overall it’s a handy, low-cost timer that’s great for practice but usability and ad-related concerns temper the experience.

Pros

Easy to learn and quick to use.
Improves speed-stacking times.
Affordable timer alternative (no need to buy an expensive timer).
Ad-free experience (no intrusive ads).
Allows saving/keeping solves and works like a stackmat substitute.

Cons

Ads are present or still pop up despite attempts to remove them.
Start/stop responsiveness and touch-based input issues (difficult to start, stop quickly).
Limited input controls (primarily single-finger; not great for two-handed use).
Screen dimming issue (needs option to keep screen on during timing).
Occasional bugs or reliability issues (timing can get stuck or miscount).

2023-03-12	A *****	I love this app so much. It is the best for speed stacks even though the real timers are better. This is good because you don’t have to spend 20$ on a timer I really recommend this app.

2022-11-03	My*****	I hate how you have to use only the time of your fingers for it to work. Additionally the timer’s noises are awful and I just hate them. The timer is difficult to start and and. There are endless amounts of problems with this timer but it’s a waste to my time.

2020-11-17	To*****	This app is so cool. Even though the developers haven’t updated it in years, it is still amazing. It is just like a normal stackmat, except that you can’t connect it to your computer on cstimer. Many reviews say that there are ads. Nope. There are zero ads. I like that you can save the solves you want to save, instead of the app saving all your solves. You could virtually use this instead of a stackmat. Developer/ developers, if you see this review, here are some ideas for what to add to this app. First thing, you could add a feature that calculates your average of 5 and average of 12. Second, you could add a scramble generator. This would be really helpful, because I have to switch to another timer app to get an actual scramble, then I have to go back to your app and then do my solve. Third, maybe you could enable this timer to be connected to your computer, so that you could record solves in Cstimer or something. I don’t know if this would be possible, but if it is, you should totally add it. Anyways, that’s all for this review, have a good day 😁👍
