  Works Great

  ** New Evaulation ** FYI I am running OS Big Sur I reopened he app, and updated it. It seems to be staying put; however, when I click on a timer to change it, the app crashes. So, I cannot add a new timer, or modify one. What I have is what I have. I just want to say that the reason I am sticking with the app is that it is one of the only apps that is anywhere close to what I want. ** Reevaluating my review. ** I like the app, and I use for about 15 countdown timeers (events, projects, etc.). I also run a high-end system with four monitors, and a drawing tablet. It took me about an hour to set up all the timers, and I placed off to the side of the left-most monitor. Well, every few days, when I boot up my system, all of the reminders move to the middle of my main screen. It takes about 10 minutes to get them back into place. If I only had one or two timers, it would be frusrating enough, but 15 is too many to have to reposition every few days. Guss I am i the market for a new countdown timer. ** Original Review** A month or so ago, I gave this app a 1-star review because it would not open. So, I tucked it away, and forgot about it. The company sent me a nice email, asking me to contact them. So, I dragged the app out, and tried to fire it up... low and behold it is now working fine. The Windows IOS has been going through some updates lately, so maybe that was it. It does everything it claims...

  One and Only Reminder App You Will Ever Need !

  I love the simplicity of this desktop reminder for my Windows. It is highly visible, but yyou have options to adjust how you wish it to appear..IE..Circular , Title , Full size. You can try the FREE version in the App Store, but after using this for one day..I upgraded to the PRO version, and I PROMISE you will never have regrets with this program. I had owned the Microsoft Home and Business just to have the feature of the pop=up reminders in "Outlook". After I started using "Countdown Timer Plus"...I uninstalled all of Microsoft software, and will never go back to using their products on any of my Microsoft systems.

  Great design, but missing some features

  This is definitely the nicest looking countdown timer app avaliable in the Windows OS app store. The timers are pretty easy to set up, once you realize the app stays in the top bar. Editing your timers is a little clunky, but generally easy enough. There are, however, a few missing features that would make the app a lot better, and would make me more likely to buy the pro version. The biggest missing feature, in my opinion, is scheduling or repeating timers. For instance, I'm mainly using my timers to help me go to bed earlier, so it'd be nice if I could schedule the timers to automatically repeat on different days of the week. Another feature that would be really nice is the ability to choose custom colors. The existing color selection isn't... terrible (although I don't think I'll ever use a warm color), but it'd be really nice if I could pick my own colors from a color picker tool.

  LIke it - however...

  So far I've used it a couple of times and like that it keeps me on track. It is easy for me to get busy on a task on my computer and loose track of time and be late or totally miss a Zoom meeting. This is great as a constant reminder that keeps me apprised of how much time I have left until I need to log on to my meetings. I also like that I can type a message so I can tell myself what I should do for that alarm. So what's the "however?" There are two things I'd like to see added to the App 1st Volume control so the spoken reminder will announce at a preset level regardless of what the system is set at. When it went off I about jumped out of my skin. 2nd and more helpfull, the ability to schedule forward for reoocuring meetings so I could schedule it to pop up at a predetermined time before each meeting then run as normally.

  Interface is unfriendly, but it does look nice

  This app has a sleek design, without which I doubt any of us would be here. However, the timer creation interface is so clunky, requires many unnecessary steps, starts the timer before you even click accept for all the settings, and has you clicking many wrong buttons resulting in starting over. On top of that, the app defaults for creating timers using a date selection tool, with no real customization for less than a day, why? That baffles me (and the sub 1 hour customization is a pain). Further, you essentially have to recreate a timer everytime it finishes, and it starts counting 'the minuts ago' that it finished, instead of giving you a reset option. If there were a reset option I would be happy enough to give this a 5, as then I could avoid the whole tedious process.
