The iwatch version has a bad glitch

I like having this on my iwatch, however the app on the watch has a glitch and doesn’t do any timers over 59 minutes. If I place anything above that, it sticks to 59 minutes. I tried emailing the developer and no response or fix after a while. I like the app, but for this glaring glitch I have to rate lower.

Developer Response ,

Hi! For that long timers you need to enable notifications, since the app stays active only for 1 hour max.

Your App saved my eye

I have had Ramsay Hunt Syndrome (Bell’s Palsy plus ear shingles) since February, and my eye was “hinged” open until recently, and I bought this $1.99 app, and it alerts me on my iWatch or iPhone to blink every 57 seconds, over and over, and this product helped me regain the ability to blink naturally. Thank you from a a guy that can naturally blink again. Go without blinking for 2 minutes and see what I mean. It gets dry. Blinking saves the day. I am Hank Hurst, and I was not paid a red cent to make this review.

Helps with focus & workout

I had some trouble at first getting notifications when the screen locked but, I found out I had to allow persistent banner notifications and allow it in dnd. It works now with screen lock.
This helps me keep pace with my workouts, and i set focus reminders to keep on task. I even use custom recording reminders. I like that I can remind every few seconds.
This is really useful!
