Review summary

Users praise the timer’s usefulness (lap timing, multiple timers) and practical uses (homework, cooking) along with a visually appealing UI. However, they repeatedly slam the app for aggressive monetization, heavy ads, and a confusing, hard-to-bypass paywall. Billing issues and perceived high ongoing costs further sour the experience, overshadowing the app’s utility for many users.

Pros

Timer supports lap times and multiple timers.
Useful for homework and cooking.
Visually appealing UI with circle timer visuals.
Positive overall experience with potential to upgrade to premium.

Cons

Aggressive paywall and subscription model with confusing free options.
Frequent ads and video ads interrupting use.
No easy way to access free functionality; onboarding/paywall UX is poor (hard to skip/close).
Billing issues and recurring charges reported by users (weekly fees and unauthorized charges).

2026-05-05	Th*****	I like others Thought you can’t get the free version. It’s simply not true. Read and follow instructions. Once you close the app completely and you restarted it, The free version will pop up. I’m glad I was able to adjust my review. I’m very sorry I didn’t pay attention and completely close it out like instructed close it out and restart People. This is an amazing app. I might purchase the additional features just because of how wrong I was. Very sorry thank you for making this app. It’s quite amazing.

Don’t believe the responses to the reviews on here. There is NO option to skip the start page and not enter your payment information. So tired of stuff like this….

2026-03-11	ja*****	For sure a jew made this. The subscription page pops up every time you open the app😭literally an app for pressing a button to keep track of time and they want money every time you use it. Wild.

2026-02-04	Vv*****	The developers should consider changing what it says on the subscription page, which you can only move on from by selecting from 3 options: a "free trial", the actual subscription, or a weird 3-day free trial then weekly subscription. I'm assuming based on their comments in the reviews that the "free trial" option is probably the one they mean is actually free forever, but because it's labelled "trial" I'm not sure if that's actually the case so I didn't want to bother in case I have to deal with unsubscribing later. If it is truly the free forever option then it should be labelled as such, or at least have an option to close/skip that screen (there was no X button to close, couldn't swipe out of it, no skip button etc) Very poor UX and really unfortunate because the UI looked like what I wanted out of a timer app (mostly with the circle visual)
