I need a timer app.

seriously we have phones that could run the space shuttle but don't even have a simple timer?

I've searched and found a million apps for timers but was wondering if anyone could save save me some time by saying their preferences/ or what they use.
The timer has got to be the most neglected of small apps for this phone, as I've yet to see it built into any ROM yet.

I use stopwatch 1.2 it is a count down and up timer. Seems to work well.

I know Spb time has a timer/stopwatch feature, but it isn't free.

thanks wizzard, that works well enough. Now if only I could find an alarm that beeps even when the volume is set to off.

Try Pocket Alarm with mp3 support it has support for beeping with the sound off

I use SPB Time and it has a nice timer part of the program.
Has alarm clocks and world time also.
Probably pick it up on Handango.

I use a free countdown timer with 3 clocks called small time.

Try gsAlarm Clock for an excellent blow yourself out of bed alarm. Seriously it's loud. I use phone weaver and my sound profile is set to off till 7a. But the alarm goes off at 6a and isn't affected by the sound setting on off.

Agreed. gsAlarm Clock is the only alarm I use. I works with any .wav or .mid files, is very loud and works even if the phone volume is off. I could barely get up in the morning without it.

I couldn't help attaching my favorite alarm.
