A closer look at Countdown Timer
Countdown Timer makes taking time easy and fun. Just swipe and go!! Countdown Timer is extremely easy to use, quick, and reliable. With a handy widget, it is a great addition to your everyday gear. Countdown Timer is designed for short intervals, and NOT designed to count down to a specific date, nor count days. Countdown Timer is best as a cooking timer, public speaking timer, great for exercise, games, sports, tests, naps, night sleep, parking, etc (anything from 1 second to 99 hours). . . . And it-s totally FREE with no ads, no spam and no special permissions! Beautiful and robust timer. I use times for all sorts of things, this is one of the prettiest I have seen.
