Ratings and reviews

I would give it a five if it allowed me to restart the timer at anytime...Manual. For example I closed it by accident and I had to start from the beginning again, I couldn't put the time that I should of had, only Options was to start all over.

Very accurate and very valuable. Tells the exact steps to make sure that you are not missing anything so that the food is processed correctly and with minimal risk of spoilage or contamination. I'm very glad that I found this app.

Not enough detail on safe canning practices. It's just a timer, really.
