Review summary

Users say the app is simple and easy to use for basic timing (cooking, reading) and some call it perfect. Major complaints repeat: intrusive ads, aggressive subscription/paywall prompts (often unexpected), unwanted push notifications, and instability or timer failures. Many report the app was better before recent changes.

It sends annoying push notifications after making you accept them so that it can notify you when the timer goes off. If all it did with that permission was have the timer go off, it would be fine. It does not. 2 stars.

Intrusive ads are a problem. Used to love this app and never minded the ads until they became intrusive. Need to stop the timer quickly? Nope, here's a long mobile game ad. Navigating around the app? Here's more adverts. If there was a one time payment to stop the ads I would have bought it, but I'm not going to pay a subscription for a app I use for maybe 14 minutes a day. Found Google has a clock app which does what I need for free and without ads.
