Good for single sitting, bad for repetition.
This is a fine app if youre looking for a simple starting and stopping bell over a fixed time period, plus a small optional preparation period (like 30 seconds to get into position -- you can adjust the time before the first "start" bell rings). I appreciate the clean and simple interface, not full of bells and whistles (both figuratively and literally, since theres one count-em one chime which sounds great).
If comes up short if you want intervals or repetition. Theres a "Repeat" option that sets the timer to restart…and restart, and restart, and restart, never stopping until you go back to the settings and turn it off. (Exiting the app *postpones* the restart -- the app will chime immediately when you return to it.) Makes me wonder if they ever actually tried to *use* this feature. A setting to let you set the number of restarts would turn this from a face-plant into a winner.
