ShelbyTimer app for iPhone and iPad
Developer: Shelby LLC
First release : 02 Apr 2018
App size: 17.41 Mb
The ULTIMATE timer app! Originally developed for use while grilling food outdoors, as a way to start a timer several minutes LATE when I actually remembered to start a timer. I would often forget to start a timer right when the food went on the grill. With ShelbyTimer, you can ADD several minutes to any timer! FORGET to start a timer when the fish went in the fryer? NO PROBLEM - just add them on when you remember to start the timer!
A timer app is a simple thing, so should also have a simple interface. One frustration with other timer apps was their clunky interfaces, especially when steaks have just been put on the grill and time is of the essence! ShelbyTimer was designed with simplicity in mind. Clean, concise, and without flashy eye candy clutter everywhere...often lost in many apps that try to do too much. Keep it simple, clean and easy to use, or dont bother making an app at all! Despite all the extra features, this is the simplest, easiest-to-use timer app around!
Another reason I was frustrated with other timer apps was because I wanted to set my iPhone/iPad propped up against the wall and watch the timer, FROM THE GRILL AREA or across the room. So I wanted huge fonts that are easy to see, even from far away... as big a font as will fit on the screen. Set the phone down and walk away! The final reason for the frustration with other timer apps was I often wanted to have more than timer going at once. (Say, one for the meat and one for the vegetables!) With ShelbyTimer, you can set AS MANY SIMULTANEOUS TIMERS as you could realistically want. (I have tested with over two THOUSAND timers going at once!)
Other bonus features are the ability to edit the name of any timer, pause and reset timers, portrait and landscape modes for easy reading, and changeable backgrounds! Included are over 20 built in backgrounds, but even better is the ability to IMPORT YOUR OWN PHOTOS for backgrounds!
As a developer, I hate bloated software... ShelbyTimer is only a few small megabytes, is AD-FREE, starts instantly, and runs smoothly. In fact, its so lightweight that it doesnt even need to be running to be working! Once a timer (or many!) are started, you can completely close the app if you dont need to watch it! Even turn off your phone! It doesnt matter! When you finally come back to the app, your timers will still be there, showing the correct time!
