  1. This is a nice first release. I have been looking for such a tool (I currently use the G8 Game Timer http://www.thegamesjournal.com/reviews/G8GameTimer.shtml ). I have some suggestions:

    In setup, allow placement "around the table" of the players. Then in the timer mode, show those players around the outside edge of the screen. In the center have two arrows, one for clockwise, one for counterclockwise.

    For use, if you hit the clockwise arrow, it moves the timer to the next person around the table, and vice versa for the counterclockwise arrow.

    If you want to hop to a specific player, just click on them on the outer edge. This is faster and more intuitive.

  6. This timer is exactly what I needed! I am designing a board game, and will reference this as an option for timing once I release. I hope that helps you with your traffic :) I was curious if you have considered adding a warning option and also a custom alarm sound when time is up?

    It would be very cool to allow a sound to play for a set duration (like a single "toc" every X seconds from X seconds remaining to 0). Then of course the ability to set the "time's up" tone.

    Thanks for the great app!

  8. Version 1.4.0 published to the market.
    You can use your mp3 for time's up and set an alert from X second before end and every Y seconds (you can also use your own mp3)

  11. The actual timers seem to not count in this latest release. I have tried on Samsung galaxy S3, wikipad tablet and fails to count on either. it does work on the nexus 7.

  12. The app is nearly perfect, the only thing that i miss is the option to have 2 chronos, one for the amount of time each player has for each individual turn, and one for the maximum time for each player to complete all his/her turns in the entire game.
