This is a very useful timer, works exactly as I wanted for my presentation. I walk around when I speak, into and with the audience, so I set up the timer and placed my iPod horizontally, on the speaker's table, facing out to the audience. The screen was large and clear enough to be visible across the medium-sized room, and the numbers were legible enough for me to see them through a quick scan even as I was speaking. Wonderfully designed!!
I didn't want the sounds to interrupt my speech, so I simply turned the volume all the way down on the iPod itself. It would be good to have some kind of option on the app for this, so that I don't have to remember to turn the volume back up afterward.
I love the multiple colors so that I can see at a glance during my speech what "zone" I am in during my talk. I would like the colors to be customizable, though -- so that I can set up, for example, a yellow zone as a warning color and a red zone as the wrap-up color.
For the way I do my talks, the number of timers is too much, but I can see how I can simply set up fewer timers (by having the others afterward be the same time as the last one). It would be simpler for the app to give me an option of how many timers/zones I want to set up (with, perhaps, a max of 3).
Overall, really really useful app! This is the first review I've written for an app, that's how useful I found this app to be! Keep up the terrific work!
