Visual Timer Countdown user reviews :
Great simple app, albeit buggy – Saving a custom timer with a color (say blue) works well, although it would be great not to have it to give the timer a title. Going back to edit that timer changes it to the default color (red). Goal is to let a kid pick the color and use the timer so they can count down on a task. Favorite feature: using the full circle to count down regardless of the quantity of time. It just moves faster or slower depending on how much time.
I like the UI of this app, but it’s still buggy, many times even after you hit the button to stop the alarm, the tune keeps playing, even force closing the app doesn’t make it stop, I have to either reboot my phone or uninstall the app to make it stop. How the hell does Android even allow a app to hijack the alarm like this.
Works great to keep my gaming time on schedule. No Ads. I know developers need to make money. Some apps like this are simple functions. Ads just make them not worth downloading. Post up a donate button and I will gladly give you some $ for not putting ads in. Every ad based app shows you the game Evony. Worst bait and click game on the market. Thanks for not putting ads in the app. Do not want to play or see Evony ad ever!
#1. The circle does not diminish in either mins or secs. I looked for an animation control in my app settings as you suggested to another rater. Couldn’t find one on my Samsung android. #2. And how do I get the icon to drop on my screen? I can only access it by going to Apps … a big pain in the arse. #3. End notification sound continues until I get out of app, as others have complained. I like the idea, but it needs to work as advertised.
I really appreciate that this app is ad-free, not bloated at all, and includes a dark theme. Everything is readily accessible. The two improvements I’d like are to have an automatically repeating countdown feature, and for your preset clock to be larger and say what time you are selecting. I had to create a preset three times to get one for 2 minutes. Oh, and if long pressing a preset would allow you to edit as well as delete, that would also be good.
Perfect simplicity that I was looking for in a visual timer that runs while I work on tasks and is easily visible. The one complaint I have is that in landscape with the digital time displayed, the numbers are almost completely cropped out at the top of the screen. Everything should be shifted downward in the landscape view in order for the numbers to be fully displayed. In portrait mode everything looks great.
- Thanks for your feedback!
I have ADHD and have issues with getting totally sidetracked trying to accomplish household tasks. I also have a young child and i think the minimalist/clock interface will make it much easier for him to understand what 10 minutes till bedtime actually means. Love this, way easier to set up and use than the clock/alarm that comes on ur phone.
Really wish I could do countdowns longer than an hour, was planning on using it for 2 hour increments. Otherwise everything about this is just great, a simple non-distracting timer that gives you an idea of how much time is left without having you just waste time counting the seconds. Everything you need, nothing you don’t. Just really wish I could do longer timers.
I’m new to visual timers and I’m getting a lot out of this app. Some small “wishes”, though: the ability to select a 120-min ‘face’; the ability to select custom colors and set default and ‘favorite’ colors (many apps include a simple color picker); and the ability to auto-restart. Meaning, when my 15 minutes are up, it beeps and then restarts for the next 15 minutes, and so on. I have used other apps for years that do this but they lack the visual component that Visual Timer does so nicely.
Very clean UI, easy to understand. Can run in the background without trouble if you’re taking a timed break while surfing. I like the option to make the controls fade away during the timed event. I also like the options for the alarm sounds, as well as alarm volume. The option for a nicer alarm sound was important so I don’t startle myself out of a flow state. Been looking for a visual app to help with ADHD time management problems, and this works. Seeing the time run out is very helpful.
