Ratings and reviews

As others have pointed out there is no indication that the timer is running. I've checked the notification bar. I remember something showing in the past but it might have been a different app. Would be good to have some way to interact with the running timer in case I need to disable during the call. As of now, I need to remember to disable before making an important call that could exceed the timer. Otherwise, it works at base minimum for the most part but sometimes doesn't end the call.

It's not working for me, using a Motorola phone, running the latest Android. It doesn't warn nor abort a phone call after the set timeout for either outgoing or incoming phone calls. Rebooted the phone and it made no difference. By the way, I had to rotate the phone to horizontal to barely see the Enable/Disable checkbox.

This is the best call timer app I've found because 1) it has option to redial automatically or just hang up (what I wanted), 2) it uses your phone's own dialer app and interface which is perfectly integrated into the Contacts system, and 3) you can set a custom warning tone and vibration to go off before the time runs out. I just really wish I could pay to get rid of the ads since I use this all the time.
