My
Simple Timer
My
Simple Timer
is a simple basic timer application. To set a timed alarm, set the timer
duration in minutes and all else is automatic.
Press the "Set Timer Duration" button to set the desired timer
duration. Use the scroll wheel display to set the number of hours and
minutes desired.
The application saves the last timer duration that was used and
initializes the wheel value to this saved value. This makes setting the
timer to a reoccurring value (which might be used in games or other
similar activities) much easier.
Press the "Set Timer" button to start the timer. The countdown
clock will then display. The timer can operate in both the foreground and
background.
When the time reaches zero, the alarm will begin to sound.
If the app is in the background when the alarm sounds, an iPhone local
notification will be displayed to make it easy to bring the app to the
foreground and turn the timer off. When this occurs, select the "View
App" button to bring the timer to the foreground so the Timer Off
button can be seen and selected.
App includes a history tab to show past used values, which can be a fast
way to set a timer to a previously used value.
My
Simple Timer includes
a settings tab where you can configure the alarm sound to be used as well
as the total maximum duration of the alarm. A variety of alarm sounds are
provided as well as the option to use vibrate with the sounds as well. You
can also set the desired volume to be used when the alarm sounds.
Options include disabling the screen timeout so that the timer status can
be seen for the entire timer duration.
My Simple Timer includes a Music tab to play streaming music from selected
Internet Radio sources. You can listen to music while you wait for the
timer to fire, or just use it as a convenient music source.
