Kitchen Timer PRO For Android

Posted April 8, 2011 at 9:00 am by mic_888

Difficulty:

If you’re looking for a fast UI kitchen timer app, check out XDA forum member Charles Darke’s little Android app.

The XDA dev wrote the free app for power users who want a fast UI. You just need to key in the timer delay in minutes and hit the ‘Add’ button and the timer will begin.

Features of the app include:

Ergonomic timer entry
Does not acquire wake-locks and so will not drain your battery unlike other timers
Uses system alarm manager and robustly stores alarms so that the alarm doesn’t fail when the app is closed
Less aggressive/annoying timer sound (rooster loops every few seconds instead of without delay)
Less aggressive/annoying vibrate settings (as above)

For more information including the link to the QR code, head on over to the application thread.
