Pros and cons of Timer ⌛ app for iPhone and iPad

Timer ⌛ app good for

I like it & use it in my music practice. On my iPhone, I can have 4 separate timers to count the time elapsed in various music sections of a piece.
Easy peasy to use. Works well for my multiple baking and cooking "projects". Would like the ability to add a name to the timer so as to be 100% sure that I remember which timer is for which project.
This is such an amazing application because I can use it to keep track of the oven timers of several households as I am a home care worker and its so nice to have a few evenly spaced. I would definitely recommend this App to everyone. Even if you want to go shopping while your oven is on, its SO convenient.
Intuitive, functional, and free. Has the functionality of a kitchen timer and stopwatch. Very useful. A neat feature begins counting up if you miss the alarm.
Thank you for fixing the problem! Now it works like a timer should.
I was looking for a timer that would fill my iPad screen with a big set of numbers. This was not it. Could not change the size of the display.

Some bad moments

When i try to open it up, it glitches and does nothing. Fix it please!!
I purchased this timer two weeks ago and i have not been able to get this to work. I reported a bug in the program through the app store and I have not had any kind of response. I was hoping to use it for a video at work to dispel y the speed of our equipment but I am going to have to purchase a different timer since this one doesnt even work. What a waste!!
I cant shut off / reset / clear alarms once they have gone off. App used to work perfectly but I have to delete it now. 
Numerous glitches and many many difficult procedures. I was setting my timer when I couldnt leave the second place blank. It was 15 mins but I couldnt get the 0s like in the app pic 4:00 the 0s I cant get ( sorry i like to make sure people know what I am talking about. By the way I will give this app a week to help me or Im deleting
Nice looking, but without an audible alarm not very practical.
I should have read the other reviews. Not recommended as the timer graphic is the size for an iPhone. And the buttons at the top of the screen were only half visible for use. Maybe future versions will be better.
