## Review summary

Most reviews criticize the update: users miss the old, simple UI and value the timer’s core function, but the new UI is confusing, and monetization via subscription and auto-playing videos disrupts use. Audio cues can fail, and timers occasionally misbehave or fail to connect. A few reviewers still value the timer and report responsive support, but overall sentiment favors reverting to the previous, simpler experience.

### Pros

- Core timer functionality is solid and valued.
- The original app/UI was simple and user-friendly, making it easy to start and run timers.
- Timer reliably performs basic operations and connects to the timer in various setups.
- Customer support has been responsive and helpful in at least one case.

### Cons

- New UI is confusing and harder to use; more clicks; cluttered navigation.
- Subscription/paywall and video content gating features.
- Autoplay intro videos disrupt usage and can't be disabled without paying.
- Audio cues unreliable or disappear during use.
- Timers sometimes misbehave or are unreliable (timing errors, connectivity issues).
