EggTimer Max: Egg Calculator

Tired of cracking an egg open and it's not quite right? EggTimer Max calculates your exact time — boiled, steamed or cold-start. Never guess again.

You crack it open, and it's not quite right — too runny, too chalky, a minute or two off from what you wanted, and there was no way to know beforehand. EggTimer Max fixes that: tell it your egg's weight, temperature and how you like it, and it calculates the exact time based on how heat actually travels through your egg — not a generic one-size-fits-all chart.

No egg app did what I wanted, so I built one that does — and made it good-looking too.

WHY IT'S DIFFERENT • A real calculation, not a fixed countdown — the time is computed for your egg's exact weight, starting temperature and doneness • Three cooking methods — boiling, steaming, or a cold-water start — all solved with the same real calculation, so any way you cook it lands exactly right • Cooking several eggs at once? It tells you precisely when to drop each one in, so they all reach their perfect doneness at the very same moment (Pro) • Altitude correction — water boils cooler up high, and the app adjusts for it via the barometer or a manual setting (Pro)

ALSO INSIDE • Choose doneness visually on the doneness indicator, from soft and runny to fully hard-boiled • A calm, realistic boiling and steaming animation keeps you company while you wait (Pro) • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island (Pro) • Fahrenheit/Celsius and metric/imperial, automatically • Available in English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Japanese

EggTimer Max is free to use. A one-time Pro unlock adds multiple eggs at once, altitude correction, the Live Activity and the water animation. If it earns a place on your kitchen counter, you can also leave a small tip.
