Ultrachron Stopwatch & Timer for Android
Got new phone. App re-installed. No speech. Wrote to developer. Developer never responded.
I use to loved this app, it was simple and practical now they changing the one thing I loved about it. The notification in the status bar. They changed it in to a sand clock which is not helpful at all. Please bring back the notification in the status bar and you will get my 5 Stars again
I'm disappointed. The app works, but I got a new phone with Nougat and I found out that I can't command it by voice using Google Assistant -- I can set it as the default timer utility (trick: tell G.A. to "start a timer" without specifying time and it will show a screen that allows you to select the app) so G.A. will open it instead of the built-in Clock, but it won't select the correct pane, it won't set the timer to the time requested and it won't start the timer. It just opens Ultrachron and I have to do all the settings by hand. So it loses a lot in convenience to the default Android clock.
This was one of my most used and favorite apps. It now doesn't merge with the dictionary, is simply put garbage and I paid them when I was satisfied with it & it then worked..now, not at all. Junk, save your time and money. And they havn't answered my email with a screen shot of the opened app showing the problem. ????
This app sucks. It mostly never goes off when it's finished. I want my money back from this piece of crap!
Look for an alternative. Kind of stupid that there is no notification that the app is running once you leave it. 167 ours later I have to use it again only to discover it's counting. Down another star for ignoring the complaint. Damn thing was running for apparently 3 months. In that time I rebooted several times but this app STILL WAS RUNNING WHEN I NEXT OPENED IT. Amateur programming and obviously an abandoned app.
Roger Rodrz nailed it.... The only thing I really liked was the numeric status bar.... Now it's an unreadable hourglass. Please bring the numeric option back!
Stopped while doing a countdown intended to wake me up at the end of a lunchtime nap! I overslept and put my job in jepeordy!! UltraCRAP!!!
If you miss the audio alert, there is no way to get an LED notification. I tried using the "Light Manager" app to manage the LED, but something about the UltraChron notification is not right. Maybe a special notification, just for alerts, could be implemented, so that the LED can be managed?
Great app. Stopwatch and timer with no access to personal data. Simple, nice graphics, works well on Pixel.
I can't use my own alarm clock sounds. It doesn't see them.
One of the essential apps for me. Great for cooking with the multiple talking stopwatches.,Looks great and works great.
My phone got updated to android 7.1 and now the alarm volume keeps resetting to max 100%.
reading bad stuff but still the best!..for a good smartphone ???? the paid went free?.
How do I activate it by my voice? Nothing works and there's no setting for it.
Quite frankly, if the alarm does NOT sound, an alarm clock is useless.
Just does what it should, also it speaks
Very good. Best stopwatch.
It's a good app. Good enough for me to buy it. However, I wish there were more options with colors and fonts.
I have the old paid app. Before the update I could put my on loud tune on it now only the ones that came with it. I'm half deaf and need a loud tune. Also now it doesn't go off if the screen is off. It is now a waste of money for me. I'll still give it 2 stars for what it was before the last update.
2nd time I paid for this app and after the update it sucks, used to be great. Update, real bitchen timers stop reset and unnamed them selves and ruined 6 Porter houses and baked sweet potatoes!
4.4.2...latest update was supposed to fix. Now it quietly counts down to zero, and nothing happens. Wake the phone and it says no user response. Will uninstall and BUY something reliable soon.
The premium/paid version had a "Bug" but after contacting the developer it was fixed almost immediately. I use this whenever I am grilling something (like steaks and seafood) that require shorter grill and flip times. The voice prompts, countdowns and "stay awake" functions on both versions provide great results each and every time. I upgraded to the paid/premium version for more options and given the support response I would recommend it.
I have a Galaxy S4 Android 5.0.1 and I have your timer 2.07 and the timer will only sound an alarm if my screen lock is turned off. If the screen lock is on and the display is turned off when it reaches 0 nothing happens and when it starts Counting Beyond zero then the light comes on and the voice starts telling me how many seconds over & I get a message telling me that the alarm sounded but there was no user response. I reported this on July 24th 2016 and no help.
I used this app to help time my run in an auto rally race. I set my target time for the run. It worked great. Loved the voice warnings at certain intervals of the countdown. Really like the various setting options. It helped making this timer visible in bright sunlight.

v2.05 alarm still not active on Android 4.4.2 (G7102DXUBNH1)
This app needs to let you set multiple timers (i.e. Kitchen timer) especially since this is a purchased app &KT is free.
Good app.
Does what it's supposed to do well. My only complaint is the timer labels reset to defaults if the time is changed. For example, I want my parking timer to stay labeled "Parking".
When the timer times out, the app is displayed on the lock screen. When I'm not near the phone, the screen will eventually lock again, but the notification is now gone, so I get no blinking light to show me that the timer had expired. I'm using "Light Manager" to manage the LED, but that app is not the problem since the UltraChron notification is gone.
I love this app, if there is anything you want adding or changing the developers will do their best to make it happen asap. Thumbs up, 5/5.
Alarm is silent since update
My goto timer.
I love the update. I had been put off by the slightly "old fashioned" look of ultrachron but loved how it worked. Now there is a new update to the design I am so pleased. It looks great. Thanks so much.
The update to 2.02 is causing some issues on my Galaxy S5. The alarm does not sound consistently when the screen turns off. So if I set an alarm for 30 minutes and put the phone in my pocket, no alarm sounds when the time is up. I am also having difficulty getting the program to "close" when I hit the back button.
This was my first paid app when I got my first Android device. Has everything I need for timing things.
I've had this for several years, and the May 2016 update is fantastic. More modern looking UI and more customizable.
It finally work till it charged me twice for the bs.
