User Reviews

Users like the app for its simple, uncluttered timer and useful overlay feature, plus affordable premium options. Recurrent issues center on reliability (timer not counting with the screen off, crashes, and occasional disappearances) and readability (small, non-resizable timer window). Some users express frustration with premium gating and cross-store payments, though several reviews still praise the lightweight, task-focused experience.

Pros

Simple, uncluttered interface that is easy to use
Overlay/draw-over capability lets the timer stay visible while using other apps
Affordable/premium is optional with many users noting no ads or good value
Lightweight, small footprint and lightweight design praised by users

Cons

Timer stops counting when the screen is off or when running in the background (persistent issue)
Crashes or becomes unstable for some users
Timer window is too small and not resizeable/readable for many
App can disappear or reset when switching between apps
Premium features gating and cross-store payment questions / frustration with paying for features

Recent reviews

would be better with preset countdown timers as well as a variable timer

Ch*****, 2026-08-13

been looking for a good, simple, easy to use stopwatch app that can have floating, labeled timers over other apps in landscape mode. Finally found this one, gave it a try, does everything I wanted, no unwanted fluff, easy to start, stop, and move timers. Bought the premium for no reason other than the dev deserves it for finally ending my hunt.
