It's been useful for several years, however, there's been a disconcerting change in the light function. Its very small. Still great for personal use.
Love this timer. Very useful and easy to edit. The only request is I hope I can make the number (timer) a bit bigger on the screen. Other than that, this is awesome
Easy to use with preset times. The letter indication works great for colorblind people.
We can recommend this for every toasmaster club. Maybe you can add setting for full screen colour.
Impressive simple to use. To add more timers use copy, change duplicate title and timing
Was unable to install app but Michael was very tenacious to get me to the goal. Thanks
Just what I needed! Works exactly as described, without freezing up.
Excellent app. Does what it needs to do and is very easy to use.
Love it to bits!
Used it for years works great.
Love using the timer.
I use regularly for several things.
The Best One!I tried them all.
Easy to use
Have used this Timer 4 TM in meetings, as well as on the lectern during my own speeches and lectures outside of Toastmasters Club meetings. Excellent Devoloper response to request. Great app!
I experimented with countless other apps designed for TM meetings. This is the one that I found most finished and functional. The only thing I might wish for would be to edit the reports, but that's not really the purpose of this specific tool. What it does, it does very well, being useful both for the time keeper and the speakers.
Best-looking timer app I've found, simple elegant interface, clever that the yellow light automatically calculates mid-point between green and red, enables custom time setting to the second, and no ads. I appreciate that. However, the grace period alert doesn't appear to work. I've tried every configuration with the +/- buttons. Red just shines indefinitely after time expiration. Also, I couldn't find the report feature; I don't need it, but was frustrated that it was an advertised feature that doesn't appear to exist. The Speech Timer app by Michael Dobbins is the best timer for my purposes, but Timer4TM has more pleasing look and feel. If I could combine the best features of both along with a grace period chime, that would be a winner. Combined features would include: Color change when grace period expires. Optional chime when grace period expires. Large "G", "Y" and "R" letters displayed in circle so timer works for color-blind users. Custom time settings that can be saved. Option to hide clock so this could be used for contests.
Works really well as a Toastmasters timer. Flexible enough to work in all meeting situations without being bogged down with unneeded features. This app on a tablet is a very good substitute for a traditional timing light.
Great timer for Toastmaster speeches. I haven't used all of the features but I wish there were someway to see timer status that did not interfere with seeing my speaking notes while I am practicing or speaking. Maybe a small status bar version?
Nice looking timer but I could not disable the vibrations at colour-changing-times.
Easier to use than a stopwatch. Love the color & vibration alerts
This timer is exactly what I have been looking for! Thank you for making it available.
Simple, easy to use, really useful
Perfect for toastmasters!
This is a very good timer program with one common issue with many timers. I cannot turn off the clock display. Another potential enhancement is to make an option to display three circles in, one for each color and fill the color as the time passes from green to yellow to red. This feature will enhance the app for color bllind users. Thank you for posting the app
It is and excellent application for a timer to use at meeting. The vibration just before every signal can allow the user to enjoy the speech rather than look at the watch all the time. The timings also can be changed easily. Would only like to have an additional custom setting which can be saved.
Excellent timer for Toastmasters meeting. Can you add an option to hide the times as this wouldn't work for a contest at the moment. Keep up the great work.
I like what I see so far, but I can't figure out how to access the report. Okay, now I've stumbled around and found the report access, but how about a PDF instruction sheet to explain the features, what they are and how to access? At that point, you'd have a pretty easy 5-stars from me for a free app!
Has passed the test of time with me! Even though the club has a timer, I place my cell phone in front of me with the app turned on as it gives me guidance on time continuously as well as the lights. Also have used in on line meetings. Have recommended it to all members of both of my clubs!
