Retro Timer

A wonderfully simple, no-nonsense countdown timer for Android

Retro Timer is a wonderfully simple, no-nonsense countdown timer. Inspired by the elegant simplicity of an old-fashioned egg timer, you just turn the dial and the alarm is set! To cancel the alarm, just turn it back down to zero.

The minimalist feature set is intentional, to keep the features from getting in the way of what you are trying to get done. You can however toggle the ringing and vibration.

The inspiration for the app came from the Lifehacker article Use a Timer as a Productivity Booster and Sanity Minder.
