Very basic, cute interface
I like the simplicity of this app -- it's about as easy as using a kitchen timer. A few things I would recommend for the next version:
* A choice of alarm sounds with ability to preview them, like iPhone alarm.
* If you click anywhere in the round white face, OOPS! you just reset the alarm. That's not good. Make it a double-click.
* Add a button to create a new alarm so I don't have to do it through the menu.
* More styles/colors would be nice too.
All in all, though, I'm happy with my purchase!
It does what it says Excellently. But...
You can set many timers at one time. Nice
They will play your Itunes. Nice
They will stop your itunes. Nice
It's low cost. Nice
The only drawback is the fact that it only works for 6 hours. WHY? If they just reset one line of code they could make it an 8, 10, or 24 hour timer. And you could use it as an alarm clock for waking up in the morning. I wonder how many customers they are losing by doing this?
Good, simple, very useful.
Works as advertised. Small footprint and "always on top" option makes integrating it with your desktop a breeze.
The default alarm tone is fine, somehow modern Nintendo-like. Would be nice to have alternates with a preview. Also, maybe a black one, brushed aluminum, translucent, or green one. How about the standard system color-picker to choose a color?
Was what I was looking for, though.
