Are you sick of twirling a dial or pressing an up/down selector 30 times to set a simple timer? Then this is the timer app for you!
I wrote this free app for power users who want a fast UI. Just key in the timer delay in minutes and hit "Add" button and the timer will begin.
I'd be interested in getting feedback as XDA readers tend to be power users and I'm interested to see what features you all would like to see.
Features:
- Ergonomic timer entry
- Does not acquire wake-locks and so will not drain your battery unlike other timers
- Uses system alarm manager and robustly stores alarms so that the alarm doesn't fail when the app is closed
- Less aggressive/annoying timer sound (rooster loops every few seconds instead of without delay)
- Less aggressive/annoying vibrate settings (as above)

sweet and simple
Very nice work.
1 suggestion.
Often when cooking we you have 3 or 4 things to put on at different times.
Could you add different items separately with their own time:
i.e.
item 1 - pie t-45
item 2 - chips t-25
item 3 - peas t-10
Click start and 45 minutes starts counting down, as set by the longest time, or just enter longest first. 20 mins in "chips" notification goes off and then peas 35 mins later. That way dinner is all synchronised!
Nice concept and a great start.
It really needs the ability to time seconds (full minutes only in the current version) and multiple timers (I typically have two or three running when I cook).
As a suggestion as to how to position yourself with your customers, I'm completely put off though by an app that is still not feature complete (no preferences, as a quick find), is hopelessly crippled in the free version (60-minute limit), and has ads to add insult to injury.
I agree with the comments above. A great start, but needs to display and time by seconds, and needs to have at least 3 timers running consecutively.
Suggestion: web link to all your apps https://market.android.com/search?q=droidgram&so=1&c=apps&rdid=com.droidgram.timer&rdot=1?
Thanks for the initial feedback. Multiple timers is one of the key planned features and I hope to have this pushed out soon!
Nice start, I like the easy way to enter the time.
One suggestion: add repeating times. There are some situations where you need the possibility that a certain about of time must be repeated n times. I only know one timer (Yata! http://market.android.com/details?id=com.pelletiere.android.reallysimpletimer) who can almost do that (it's just possible to repeat over and over but not to define something like: countdown 05'30" six times, play sound after each cycle, than stop).
Would be nice if you can do that.
Cheers, Klausi
I am not really sure why this app would need the permissions that it does...

Basically, it needs vibrate to make the phone vibrate on alarm. Internet and coarse location is required to serve up AdMob adverts and also is used for analytics to track errors etc.

Thanks for the feedback. It's a bit of a tough question regarding some things e.g. release with preferences not complete.
In the end, I wanted to indicate that this is coming, but didn't want to delay the release by doing all these features up front. This way, I can get feedback on what features are important. A bit of a trade-off, I know, but as an independent programmer, I have limited time and resources so can only do the best I can as a single developer.
Updated now, the free version now has a limit of 180 minutes, which should hopefully make it more useful.
Updated to restore notification on reboot of device.
I think the app now is rock solid stable, so now I will work on additional features:
- Choice of alarm tone
- Multiple timers
At the moment, if you install both the free and pro version, you can use them together to get 2 timers at the same time.
v2.01 released
New version released. Key new features:
Add 'Seconds Mode' to allow timers to be set also in seconds
Custom alarm ringtone (by popular request)
Show alarm time in notification bar when timer is set.
Future features scheduled:
Multiple timers
App is available for free with a donate option. Please donate to support further development and additional features.
v2.1 released
3 new features for better ergonomics
http://droidgram.com/forum/Timer
- Add short timer mode
- Add tens of seconds first option
- Add tap to toggle mode feature

Hi, I am new to the forum and just built my first app, and I wanted to put it here for you guys to use and give me feedback about what you like, what you don't like if you think its useful?
I hope this is the right forum and I am not breaking any rules by posting here.( I read the sticky first)
NEW! Interval Training Mode Added.
Unfortunately, I decided to go ad supported as I spent many weeks on this
donations amounted to less that $4.00
However I am offering the paid / donate version (no ads and can save more exercises in the interval training mode)
free of charge to those who helped me and are continually helping me with the development of this via feedback and suggestions.
Just email me and I will send you a copy.
Let me know what features you would like that this lacks.
Its a free Stopwatch with three modes
1) Stopwatch with Lap Timer
2) Countdown Timer
3) Repeating Countdown Timer (Select repeating Timer when setting countdown time) E.g Alarm beeps every 1 minute, can be used for circuit training etc)
I also added a Lap Stats function which shows your fastest lap, slowest lap and avg speed.
Version 1.0.7 (update)
Elapsed Time and Remaining Time on Notification Bar (Updates every minute) -c00ller
Fixed Menu Settings (User preferences should work now) - lots of reports about this one
Added Lap counter text in landscape mode. - fifarunner
Automatically remove zeros, when user enters time via keypad. - c00ller
Updates
Added User Preferences to enable / disable haptic feedback
Changed the UI/ Layout a bit, you can now select modes by pressing icons at the bottom of the screen
Added a service that should keep the Stopwatch from timing out, I would really appreciate it if you can let me know if the problem still exists.
Added an option to allow the stop button to register as a lap.
Reduced the font size to make landscape mode work on LDPI devices
More features coming soon...hopefully I will be able to roll out updates a bit faster in the future.
Features and Issues requested and pointed out by users...Thanks Everyone for your continuing feedback.
Current Issue
-Need to create service to keep watch running in background [Gusar]
-Landscape on ldpi devices not showing correctly [fiffarunner]
Feature Requests by Members
-Add multiple timers [JVogler]
-Fix Lap layout in landscape [Alouch]
-Lap recorded on Stop and export laptimes [JimmyN]
-Add vibration rather than sound option on alarm [A.Priori]
-Save timers [treesurf]
-Custom Alarm tones [beardedchild]
EDIT: I also forgot to mention I used a Tmobile G2 for my testing which has a hdpi screen, 480x800.. so if you guys with different screen resolutions and tablets can let me know if you have any problems with the way the program layout etc please let me know, I would really appreciate your feedback. I tried using the emulator but it would crash frequently on my pc.

Hope you enjoy and feedback and suggestions would be really appreciated.
Sweeeet! Simple, but does the job. And looks good while doing it too.
One problem: Exit the app while the countdown is running and when the timer reaches zero, I'm greeted by the alarm and a force close message.
And a suggestion: An icon in the statusbar if there's a countdown running in the background.
Thanks a million Gusar321. I will definitly look into that bug and thanks also for the suggestion, I really appreciate the feedback.
Hey Gusar321, just wanted to let you know I updated the app and added the notification feature in the status bar. Also credited you on the update in the market. (Whats new section) Thanks again
I'm so disgusted with SPB Time (a not cheap paid app) missing alarms and draining battery with no support from developers...I uninstalled. I miss the repeating countdown timer for my heavy-bag work though. Going to give this a try and report back.
Will be running on Atrix BTW
EDIT: Just tried, would be great to have multiple timers at once. One to sound every minute, and then a different sound every 3 minutes. A way to achieve that would make it possible to do a whole workout without ever having to reset timer.
It looks great so far though!
Thanks for the feedback JVogler, I am glad that you mentioned that, because that is on my list a timer that can be set at different intervals. Right now I am working on keeping the timer running in the background as a Service, (thanks Gusar for reporting the issue).
very nice, gave it 5 stars.
Wow, thanks A.Priori , you guys are really giving me the ecouragment to keep improving and developing this app more. I really appreciate it.
By sometime next week, I will release a list of the features that I plan on putting in this app.
Hi spawn782
thanks for the app, nice and sleek.
I was missing this since I go Cyanogen.
Just something with the landscape mode, I think it should be redesigned a little.
As you can see on screenshot, the bottom is half cut when taking lap, and when taking new lap, it stays on the first (when it can maybe autoscroll ?).
Maybe you can just remove the grey at the top ?
Otherwise, very nice app, and keep your effort updating it
It's a 5 star for me.
Screenshot :
very nice indeed! thanks
One question, why does it need internet access, as you don't have any advertisements?
Ok, did some testing on my HTC Wildfire(240x320), works well in portrait.
But...Landscape doesn't:
This is in timer and in stopwatch mode, so landscape needs some more time. If you'd like me to test some stuff, pm me or send me an email
Thanks Alouch47, I will work on the landscape mode. I see fifarunnerr also has a problem with the landscape mode so I will definitly have to do some more work on that (thanks fifarunnerr for the offer to help, I may send you an apk after I am finished with the updates).
I do have a question about the landscape mode though, I was thinking that maybe its a mode that you would use in a scenario when you are exercising and you put the phone down a distance away from you. This is the reason why I made the numbers much bigger in this mode, so you can it from a further distance. In such a mode do you think the laptimer will be useful? I was thinking t maybe just cut off that part in landscape mode? You would still be able to record laps, but they will be visible when you return to portrait.
What do you think about that idea? Is the laptimer critical to users in landscape mode?
With regards to the Internet Access that Odyon asked about, its because I run analytics in the program. The reason being is that the anroid market analytics is really delayed for me. Today is the 11th of August and latest android market data (statistics) is is still on the 8th of August
Have to say that this shows promise, I would like to make an observation, let's say I'm using the stopwatch to time a 3 lap race, I click lap at the end of lap 1 and the time for lap 1 is shown, the same at the end of lap 2 the lap time is shown (lap 2) however I click stop at the end of the 3rd lap ( end of the race) and I would expect to see the lap time for lap 3 however this doesn't appear can this be implemented?
Also a useful function would be the ability to export your lap times as a text file.
looking forward to further updates.
I just installed it.
Very useful and simple to use.
thanks
yes that can be implemented, (lap on stop) and will be added to feature requests. I will update the first post
Very well designed, simplicity is the way to beauty.
I´m also missed the timer on my cyanogen rom so, thanks so much for your work.
Best regards.
thanks mhut
This is a very nice looking timer, however in terms of functionality and quick use, I can't find anything better than UltraChron Stopwatch
Notice how on the bottom there is a very easy and intuitive way to switch between stopwatch and countdown modes. Your app requires pressing Menu, Set Timer, adjusting the time, Set Timer button, then start. With UltraChron you click Timer, adjust time, then start. I just think your app's current method of using the same screen for two functions is a bit less elegant than it could be. Another feature it has that I don't think I can live without is it shows time left in the notification bar when you have a timer on, and updates every minute with the number of minutes left. I am not trying to tell you to copy this app, I am just saying this app has been around for a long time and you can learn from its ideas.
Also, your app only allows the numbers to be changed with the arrows. I think it would also be nice to be able to press the number itself to change it directly via on screen keyboard (just like changing alarm clock times, which give both up and down buttons as well as direct input).
I'm looking forward to seeing the growth of this app, and I hope my suggestions have helped.
BTW this is my post number 1337
Thanks c00ller, I appreciate your feedback and opinions and I agree with your comments (great points about the usability) and they are on my list to be implemented, but I figured it would be best for me to get it out first and then start rolling out the updates as I get them completed. Thanks for your feedback and I will implement these changes over the next couple of updates.
Hi Guys, I just wanted to let you know that I updated the app a bit. Sorry I have not been able to add all of the features suggested so far, but I spent most of the time trying to fix bugs that caused force closes. I hope that I have fixed most of the bugs so that I can now roll out feature updates quicker that before.
Again, thank you very much for your feedback and support.

-Quickly set-up predefined times
-Quickly access recently used times
-See time left on the status bar, without even opening the notification drawer
-Set Alarm Volume
-LED Notifications with color picker
Stopwatch functions include:

-Setting a timer equals to the length of the lap
-Setting a timer equal to the total time
Alarm Functionality includes:
-LED Notifications
-Snooze Functionality
-Standard Alarm Options
-Ability to slowly increase the volume when an alarm goes off (Either over time, or each time snooze is hit)
Planned features
-World Clock page (still trying to think of how to do this without an online database. I'll have to see if android provides timezone information).
Demo Limitations:
-Only 1 alarm is allowed
-Stopwatch/timer is limited to 15minutes

nice. I recently posted a request for an alarm clock with certain features: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1736987
only one of those is missing in this app, maybe you could have a look at that? would be really appreciated:
"- increasing ring after snooze (as in the first time the alarm goes of it starts at 10%. Then I snooze it and when it goes of the next time it starts at 30%, making me wake up faster. And so on for the next alarms after snoozing)"
of course standard features like increasing ring, set snooze time, .. need to be added as well
Nice. Will try it

I was planning something similar to this as an option but thanks for the idea, I'll look into adding it within the coming week. (Mine was over a minute or so to raise the volume from 1% to 100%)
what you describe is the "normal" increasing ring that increases every x seconds. it's pretty much a standard feature in every alarm app. what I'm requesting goes beyond that, hope you'll have a chance to do it

Yeah I'll make it an option, it should be easy to implement. I'll probably update the app monday/tuesday and if it's not in that one it should be included by friday.

Hello everyone.
Let me highlight you my story.
Since little more than 2 months, sitting after daily job (mon to fri, 9to5 and half) till late night hours I finished work on the first version of my android application.
It also happened that next day after I released it to the Play Google market I've just got fired!
From one side it's better, because now I have much more time (that was missing so much) for marketing and updates. From the second side a little bit poor situation couse I have lost my main source of income and I am located 1000km from family right now.
But BE POSITIVIE I though! Anyway right now I decided to devote a 100% of my spare time for polishing and marketing of my application and the contact with users. Respond to each single response of clients as fast as I can.
The application is called Meditate - Meditation Timer
It's higlhy custamizable, programmable and userfriendly meditation timer with a bunch of settings that user can use to personalize it best for needed purposes.
It can be also used as a sleep heler [mode Fall Asleep].
Short brief of features:
Directly after application starts we can quickly and easy choose between two main mode, Single and highly customizable Plan mode.
On the main activity you can swipe between 3 meditation modes:
a) Meditation
b) Meditation with affirmation
c) Fall Asleep (sleep booster)
User has possibilities to define any amount of meditation Plans he wants with that contains any needed amount of steps. In each of them it is possible to set the category of meditation and it's duration (hours:minutes). After completing each next step, the next one is load automaticly. Till the last one, then the whole Plan can be reset and start from begining, or be completely redited.
Application has also a bunch of settings such as, preparation time, time after sound should be repeated, quieting each next sound, choosing own sound file from phonoe storage and setting the time of everydays notifications, etc.
After completing meditation there is possibility to save a note, which can be further freely viewed or edited in History of all previous meditations. History itself contains infos like date, start and end time, category of meditation, title of affirmation, title of the plan, number of step etc. Each can be deleted if user wants that.
In Statistics you can look on your progress on the scalable and scrollable column charts. Period of 7, 30, 90, 365 days ago can be set. Or after click 'Show All' we will see the meditations since the first one ever started (and still not deleted by user) till today.
Please, don't be scared, you do not need to spend money right away. Application is avaliable in two versions. Free test trial, wich a few limited options, and paid one ($0.99). I think it is really cheap comparing to other products from this category.

I invite you to Meditate
I am aware of that because of abundance and diversity specifications and companies that produce devices with Android system, on some of them can apear errors, that I do not experience for example on my own phone (HTC One S btw.). Also because of this reason I very ask you for help with testing the application.
In thanks for your time spent by, even only for a look inside the application page and throw an eye on description / screenshots, whenever possible I will answer to any question related to the topic. Also send a whole lot of positive energy during the next meditations.
Cheers!
Pablo

Nice and sleek design. Love the app functionalities.
There's a bug though. Whenever you start a timer, pause it, delete it and then create another. The pause button remains to "play"
Beautiful! I don't have the issue of pause button remains to play, running on Pantech A850L Stock 4.1.2
Very nice) I also don't have problems with pause button on my samsung galaxy s

@kayusumi/@Balter could you please try this steps to be sure the pause/play button is working?
Start a timer, tap on pause (the time flash and the button turn as play), when still in pause delete the timer with the trashcan, set a new timer, and you should see the PLAY button instead of the pause.
Could you confirm this bug?
Thanks you all.
Sandro, Pizza Entertainment
Ok, if doing so, the new timer would start with a play button
I am sorry that I didn`t see "pause it", I just delete it when running and create a new one
Wow!!!!
Beautiful Timer got a mini review on Android Police (with 40 other apps but it is ANDROID POLICE!!!)
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...-the-last-2-weeks-61813-7313/#beautiful-timer
Thanks a lot.
Very nice looking timer Has some very nice features and options too.
I had some questions and suggestions:
Questions:
1. Will you be adding customizable colours to the timer wheel by any chance? (Like you can change the timer name, be able to customize the colour too.)
2. Are there any small widgets (eg: 1x1) that can show the time remaining on a/the particular timer(s)? I did notice you have a larger widget for selecting/starting saved timers, but that's not what I'm after. I would like to see a small widget that simply shows the Timer name, circle icon remaining and time remaining.
Suggestion: I would like to be able to link timers together (ie: Expiry of Timer 1 sounds the alarm and starts Timer 2. Timer 2 could be linked to start Timer 3, or even a new instance of Timer 1 (and increment/ decrement a user defined counter?).) Yes, this sounds similar to a Tabata timer, but that's not the intent.
I have recently needed to use an icepack due to injury and I haven't been able to find a good timer that can link timers together.
The use case is as follows: 20 mins of icepack, 120 mins of rest, 5 mins of prep, repeat. If I could link timers together, I could easily manage this without having to keep restarting the timers each time.
Thanks.
Widget oddity
Hi,
I created some presets with the timer which I have now deleted as I don't want to use them anymore. For some reason, these presets always appear when I put the widget on the desktop. They aren't appearing in the app itself though.
This has occurred even after installing on a new device (must be linked to my Google account or may be related to a Titanium backup). I've tried clearing app data / reinstalling but they still appear. Is there anyway to clear the presets from the widget?
Thanks.
James

Hello James,
we do use google data backup so that the presets should be saved on the cloud. It may be that you hit a very strange bug where you can't delete it. Keep trying to delete the presets within the app. Eventually google will sync your presets and you'd be ready to go.
Cheers.
Hi,
I have been using your timer for close to TEN years - love it!!! - especially the snooze buttons when the app is alarming.
But I was using it on an Android 5 phone.
I recently moved to an android 10 phone (Pixel 4a) and your app has some significant issues:
1) It will no longer snooze when you press the volume buttons.
2) It does not reliably turn on the display when the phone is locked
3) It does not show your full-screen alarm page when the phone is locked.
4) After I unlock my phone, your alarm page only has a "Dismiss" button on that screen - there is no "restart" or "Snooze" buttons on it.
So, is there any chance of you updating your app to work with the newer versions of Android?

Total gesture control. Make your device smarter and easier to use with custom touch gestures and the many more features the app offers. You can start drawing a gesture at any time no matter which app is in the foreground. No root access needed.
With Gesture Suite
🞂 You can define your own gesture shapes that make sense for you. Not just predefined straight lines or circles.
🞂 Start drawing them immediately no matter which app you have open at the time.
Gesture Suite uses a custom gesture recognition algorithm that no other app has. Among its other advantages it can also distinguish the same shape in different sizes. Example: small S shape triggers action A while big S shape triggers action B. Also you can set starting zones so that you reuse the same shape and have it do different things depending on where you draw it.
You can use:
🞂 Custom touch gestures (draw or tap) using up to 10 fingers!
🞂 Air gestures using proximity sensor (5 different types)
🞂 Shake gestures using accelerometer sensor (short shake and long shake)
🞂 Voice commands
🞂 Task Scheduler (alarm and countdown type)
🞂 App Watcher (triggered when an app launches or exits)
🞂 Device events (device boot, screen locked etc...)
to trigger tasks that you create to control your device settings or perform multiple automated actions and save time and make your life simper.
Gesture Suite offers around 70 actions you can execute to simplify things for you. Among others Gesture Suite offers the following features:
• App launcher
• File Explorer
• Image Gallery
• Task Scheduler
• Alarm Clock
• SMS sender
• Time-lapse camera
• Flashlight
• Launchpad for frequently used apps
• Screen password protector
• App password protector
• Dropbox uploader
• Audio recorder
• Custom search engine tool to automate text searching
and much more...
◆ The app is constantly improved and new actions/features will be added in the future.
◆ The app will not monitor or send any kind of data anywhere without your knowledge. Privacy is most important.
◆ To report bugs/problems please use the "Support" option in the app's settings. Do not write them at Play Store reviews.
On this thread feel free to share your thoughts on how the app could improve, what works well and what doesn't, features or actions that you would like to be added in future updates, or generally any kind of constructive criticism or feedback.
If you don't know the app yet give it a try! If you 're a fan of automation apps and touch gestures shortcuts you will love it.
