It's nice to define your own steps - useful for the tricky Ilford Reversal Processing. Exporting presets gives error - cannot access SD card, though. Needs an update to solve this : )

This timer app has small space, so I saved space on my phone. On top of that, this timer is better than the widget timer with a stupid good morning song. The Widget Timer created by MobileRise was like this, but it had an annoying song when the timer goes off. If you want to use a really good timer, try using a Samsung Tracfone & go to tools & you'll find it.

Excellent little app with one flaw. I have not found a way to move/migrate presets between phones. Export to sd card fails with an error.

Z70%
by Z####:

Very good app, however, when I try to export my presets it says "Couldn't open backup files for writing" - which is quite a problem as I made many presets based on my own experiments. Can you please help with this?

N70%
by N####:

The idea is good but export/import doesn't work and this is a big issue. Please solve it and it is a 5 star app

Nice setup. But not being able to chsnge the alarm sound gets old fast.

No menu with Android 6.01 on Galaxy S5

Nice

C70%
by C####:

Very useful app, but don't expect to be able to backup presets due to inevitable "unable to open" errors. It's the only spoler really, and quite a big one if you've created lots of presets and darte to change your device. Not found a way round that yet.

C70%
by C####:

Unlike the other similar apps, this one really does work. I can add my own recipes, and it's intuitive! Nice job!

Also I wanted to play it on my old nexus 7 but i love it!

Simple, functional and flexible. Works.

Does everything I need for B&W development. Not failed me in the 2 years or so I've been using it. Noticed screen rotate not working with my S4. No big deal, just pointing it out. Thanks guys for a top little app.

Just developed a colour film in c-14 for the 1st time in my life came out perfect! Nexus 7

Just a great timer for all steps in developing, easy to customize, and has been a godsend for me.

Since the Samsung Galaxy s5 removed the menu button, there is no way to add a new preset. Please fix.

GREAT IDEA! Needs a bit more customization to be perfect

J70%
by J####:

Works well with the exception of sound on my nexus 7. I like the flexibility of it, it can be used for paper development as well as film. The 'red' safelite mode is perfect for printing with a safelite. The complaints about not having a ":" seems to be resolved as I see one is available now.

Extremely useful.

I70%
by I####:

Its a nice simple app that does one thing and does it well. Development has stopped, so I am in the market for a new app.

M70%

Would rate 6 stars if I could. Wonderful app, very useful indeed!

Brilliant timer! A 3 second warning tone before agitation would ne nice!

M70%
by M####:

Very useful. (Can we have temperatures in centigrade please?)

M70%

Would be better if it could be set to only output red light.

B70%
by B####:

Brilliant app. Use it every week.

G70%
by G####:

Awesomeness. Would it be possible to have an acoustic signal for starting agitation?

G70%
by G####:

This app is perfect for everyone! Great for setting your own presets per film and timed steps!

R70%
by R####:

Does what it's supposed to. Very useful. The interface could use some polish. Would like to see a better way to input numbers. Perhaps dials like a traditional timer.

K70%
by K####:

I notice one obnoxious bug when using this: When entering steps for a custom procedure, inputting time uses the number pad which has no colon. If I delete the colon (which is hard not to do), I have to go back and create the step again. Either use two separate fields for the minutes and seconds with the number pad or use the full keyboard.

Q70%
by Q####:

Does what it should do, thanks. No manual needed to get going. I had a few crashes (HTC) when entering steps but this was solved by saving after every step. I just developed my first film with this app and no complaints whatsoever. It stops between steps and requires a manual restart; for me that is great, giving you some time to pour back chemicals or so. For the more esoteric development schedules with hours of stand development and variable agitation times, maybe an alarm clock is better?

K70%
by K####:

This is a handy app. Simple, easy to use and customize, and doors what you'd expect it to do.my one complaint is that I wish it could run in the background while I use other apps. Film developing is tedious, and i'd like to be able to browse the web or read a book, and still get sound alerts for agitation and next steps. Maybe even have a timer in the pull down menu

great app. simple to use, works perfectly. love it

K70%

Getting better. Just need all menus red now. Also, 'could not open backup file for writing when exporting presets'?

K70%
by K####:

App crashes when building development process on the 3rd step in the process. Accepts developer, Blix but crashes when I try to enter next step in the process. Seems like it would be a nice simole app if only it worked. It's free so if it will work on your phone I'm sure you will be happy. .

S70%
by S####:

Really useful, simple to set up and use. Would be perfect if steps could automatically advance e.g. stop phase immediately after dev.

K70%
by K####:

Find this app really useful. Would also like steps to automatically advance, so don't need to press start with wet hands. Also, no ':' character on the time editing screen.

S70%
by S####:

Wonderful app! By any chance can notifications be earphone only once theyre plugged in? Or have a vibration setting? Thank you!

K70%
by K####:

Agree 100% with Kim. Flexible agitation times would make this app perfect.
