  1. 5/5Uncomplicated, elegant and powerful

    I must have evaluated over 20 different countdown clock solutions for use in a pitch competition. If you need a combination of simple, elegant, powerful AND capable of supporting remote control (in my case, showing countdown on an onstage iPad but controlling it from an offstage iPhone), then this is your baby! Had some trouble initially getting the devices to connect, that issue mysteriously disappeared. One ask is that you allow user to control countdown clock font (offer a few choices without serifs) and change color. Bottomline: super app that’s well worth the $9.99 price tag 🎉

  2. 3/5Range and customisation

    I’ve been looking for such app to better time manage during a show/event. I have used this app for last 3-4 years. The two suggestions for improvements that I’ve like to give is on their range and their customisation of reminder for time remaining. I wish the range was better. Currently the range is limited to < 5 ft. I’ve kept devices on both same WiFi and in discoverable mode. But as soon as this distance (range) increases the connection gets lost and I have to move really close to get it back in connected device list. Hence, I feel like if the developer had any idea on how to improve this range, it would really help because staying within 5 ft of speaker/presenter is not realistic. Lastly, I think if we had liberty to change the reminder intervals. Currently it has pre-fixed reminder intervals.

  3. 5/5Kept My Conference on Schedule

    I put on a tech conference and was looking for a timing app I could use to help my speakers understand how much time they had left in their talk. I found Fin Timer on the App Store and this app killed it. I was able to put my iPad Pro up on the stage for the speakers to see. I was then able to easily control the iPad Pro using my iPhone to start and stop the timer and adjust it as needed. Having the ability to control the app remotely was huge. It made the whole thing feel very professional and gave me a lot of piece of mind. It all just worked. Presets were wonderful so I could easily switch between times and warning screens based on the length of the time slot. Highly recommend and would use in my future conferences and personal talks I give.

  4. 2/5Almost great for Apple TV

    This app is great for what it’s supposed to do. The minimal design and easy to use interface make it great. Universal app across all iOS and tvOS is a great value. However, there is a showstopping glitch on Apple TV 4K. It works fine when you run a timer from the presets screen. When you click on the timer to get full screen though, the “Menu” and “Play” buttons are disabled!!! This is terrible because the only way to get that functionality back is by force quitting the app. It will work fine as long as you run it in the presets screen, so it is usable. Obviously though, losing the functionality for full screen mode is a major glitch. This is probably the cleanest, easiest to use timer app, so I will keep using it in spite of the glitch for now. I really encourage the dev to take a look at functionality on Apple TV though since the app store shows it is on version 1.3 from Dec 17, 2018. Looks like it’s time for a quick debug and pushing it up to v1.4.

  5. 5/5Helps give great pacing to your talks

    I recently gave a talk and was the last speaker. Each person went way over their time which made my talk go well into the time past the event’s end time. I wish more people used Fin to keep their talks on track. I found it useful to keep my talk flowing as I practiced, using the change of color to signify when I should be in the next section of my talk. This app will help you give more professional talks.
