Stylish timer for various cooking activities and not only for them. Turn your kitchen timer into attractive ultramodern fashion accessory!

Everyone has it (or lacks it) - the kitchen timer. One need to know when the baking is finished, but you’re not very likely to hear the timer once you’ve left the kitchen and you probably do not want to constantly check the cooking progress while outside - thats where Best Kitchen Timer comes into play.

This timer can be used to time anything up to 60 minutes. There are both a minute and a second visual indicator to quickly see how much time in minutes is left without reading the numbers.

* STAY NOTIFIED
It lets you set the alarm sound that will play when the timer is finished. You can choose from 16 unique alarm sounds, melodies and loops. You’ll be notified when your time is up even if you’re using another app or your device is locked. It can also repeat the sound alarm (up to 3 times) at the given interval if it was missed/snoozed.

* KIDS FRIENDLY
Timer visualizes time to kids and lets them feel the time. "Daddy, how long is 10 minutes?" This timer can answer the question.

* COLOR YOUR TIME
You can easily change the timer color to fit your personal lifestyle. There are 5 color themes: turquoise, red, green, amber and pink. Just pick the one you like in the application settings.

* UNIVERSAL APP
Timer works both on your iPhone/iPod and iPad, contains HD graphics for retina and iPad displays and supports all screen orientations for all devices. [+Retina graphics for iPad 3rd generation]

Pros and cons of Best Kitchen Timer app for iPhone and iPad

Best Kitchen Timer app good for

Timer works exactly as advertised. Its really easy to set and has lots of nice alarm sounds. However, turning it off is a pain. I havent found a way to deactivate it. It keeps recycling and sounding alarms ad nauseum. Finally I figured out to set it to zero, and it still alarms once, but then stops. This is ridiculous for a simple timer app that will almost always need to be used once then stop. At least make a couple buttons to clearly either recycle or cancel the alarm. Ive noticed this is a common problem with most iPad/iPhone alarms.

Please allow option to enable second hand ticking noise. This is the important feature i want from any egg timer. Otherwise pretty good but a tad limited.

Perfect for what I needed - a simple timer, easy to use, no frills. Nice alarm music options, too.

I get distracted easily so I was looking for a timer that ticked at the seconds. Apart from that the style was nice and I liked how you could adjust the seconds

Some bad moments

This is a nice functional app. Can u add the option of a continuous ticking sound as the timer is running? Im trying to use this as a task manager. Thanks

I use this to time pizzas while Im buy doing other things and it works great! It looks sexy and the alarm is cool and best of all its free! Great job!

It didnt work at all. I set the timer and opened another app.. It said that it would still work and I burned breakfast. Even tried setting the timer and just leaving the screen and Nothing. A total waste of money!

Ive used it now a few times and it worked great. Just what I needed for soup, tea, etc. all those little items that can go awry when you leave the room.

Wont play sound unless the app is on top. Gives you a banner but thats not enough.

Although it looks nice there are two strikes against this product: 1. It is not possible to set the volume of the timer. Using the volume button on an iPhone changes the ringer volume, not the timer alarm volume. The result is many missed timers because you forgot you turned down your volume. This is s show stopper. 2. It is hard to set the timer. Changing the default time takes too much time. It would be better if you could set multiple standard times.
