This Android app is a simple countdown timer. You can set the timer (hours, minutes & seconds) and kick it off. Once started the timer will count down. When the timer reaches zero, it will start beeping. That's it, mostly.
In detail, the app offers a few more features:
- Two different styles to set the timer:
- simple text fields or
- wheels (similar to slot machine reels, credit goes to the android-wheel project)
- Two different visualizations for a running countdown:
- display remaining time like a digital clock,
- visualize remaining time versus total time as a pie chart or
- combine both of the above
- Option to keep the display turned on during the whole countdown
Currently, this app is not available on Google's Play Store, but you can download the latest version from the release directory in the repository.
