Comments on Time Boss: timer and stopwatch for Android
★★★★★
Boss: timer and stopwatch It has no ads , its free , and it does its job.so now i can study and keep my time
★★★★★
Excellent app. Saved timer sets, linked cascading timers, auto restart. Perfect for yoga, stretching, cooking and so many things. Simple easy to use interface with many options. No annoying ads. Best timer app I've ever come across.
★★★★★
Almost perfect? I thought I finally had something I could reset quickly and have multiple timers, and i've tried a heap of them. The last thing I tested is starting a timer and clearing recent apps because this app appears to be a foreground app with no background task or persistent notification. Sure enough, clearing it means it won't sound off and I would oversleep for work. Not great. Hopefully this can be coded in at some point and I can bump my rating up to a full five stars. =-]
★★☆☆☆
Major flaw... If u run the timer or stopwatch and switch to the other ( timer to stopwatch or stopwatch to timer) you immediately lose the time that it was tracking
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work in background. ie. Alarm doesn't ring. So effectively useless.
