About TeaChimer

TeaChimer is a simple-to-use, reliable countdown timer that you can have always handy. Save a timer for your favorite tea or perfect egg, and start it with a simply tap on the name.

Need a "naughty spot" timer for each child? It's simple to set up, and you can give each one their own distinct sound at the end. For more discrete timing needs, you can eliminate the sounds and just pop up a message on the Notifier bar.

It runs in the background, even if another application has control of the screen.

Unreliable

O70%
by O####:

This used to work perfectly a five star app in meeting my timer needs but lately it has on occasion switched the phone to silent mode; On HTC one ICS

S70%
by S####:

The notification does not happen when the screen shuts off.

S70%
by S####:

Very rough still. Program has some promise, but work on the UI more. You might also want to have some defaults built in for green, black, or oolong.

S70%
by S####:

Validated on HTC Evo. Timers work exactly as configured. If you can't hear them, you didn't select a ringtone (or your volume is low). No Ads! - RMB

S70%
by S####:

Doesn't work in landscape mode, needs other UI improvements. Keep working on it and one day this might be the best timer on the marker ;)

M70%
by M####:

If the phone goes to sleep in the middle of the timer, the alarm won't go off

S70%
by S####:

Best timer available for Android, if your timer is set for less time than your screen timeout. Keep awake option/piggyback toggle screen timeout?

S70%
by S####:

I would love it if i could delete or edit a timer. Otherwise i love it. Will reinstall it after i deinstall it so i can program it right.

S70%
by S####:

OI countdown is better - this can't run more than one timer simultanneously.

S70%
by S####:

Great program, but it turns my ringer volume to 0 for no reason!

S70%
by S####:

I would rate higher except that the ONLY way to set time is tap-tap-tap. Should be able to set by typing.

S70%
by S####:

This is one of the only reliable timers I could find in the market. It works!

S70%
by S####:

This app works great on my tablet, by on my phone there's some glitch that sets the phone to vibrate every time I use any of the timers.

S70%
by S####:

Best flexible countdown timer did just what I wanted by saving named timers but could have slicker ui and wish could work evem if phone sleeps

S70%
by S####:

Too buggy.. weird. Doesnt seem to work when phone is off. Running app again doesnt bring me to previously started alarm.

L70%
by L####:

Tested all timer apps and find this one the best. Simple and useful. Like the option to set up timers for different occasions.

S70%
by S####:

Phone sleeps > timer dies. The overall gui is also a bit wonky

S70%
by S####:

Seems the countdown goes to fast. Irl seconds are longer than in de app

H70%
by H####:

Poor UI. App should allow concurrent timers, not just one at a time.

R70%
by R####:

Best timer app I have found so far
