About this app

Once Upon a Timer is a simple timer designed to start with a single tap on the app icon.

Tapping the app icon starts the timer instantly and keeps the app minimized. On supported devices and launchers, the badge on the app icon updates with the remaining time.

You can check the countdown directly from the home screen or app drawer without reopening the app. Tap the icon again while the timer is running to open the user interface.

The app remembers your most recently selected duration and alert preference, so they are ready for the next timer.

Features:
• Instant timer start
• Automatic minimization
• Live countdown on the app icon badge
• Check the remaining time without reopening the app
• Remembers your last timer settings
• Simple duration dial
• Quick 5-second and 30-second adjustments
• Precise background alerts
• Sound and vibration at completion
• Optional vibrate-only mode
• Running timer notification
• Easy termination when you no longer need the timer

Once Upon a Timer is designed for moments when you need a timer without navigating through menus or pressing extra buttons.
