The Hourglass Emporium

This app absolutely give me what i want, small number, realistic sand amimation. But I personally like wallpaper that is clean and simple, more Apple-like, I would pay for it if it has it, just the wallpaper, others are great!

perfect lil program. change the time to whatever (including hours). has counter for both sides and flipping ipad reverses counters. fun animations. alarms and very versatile. i paid 1$ and that is the first dollar ive given an app. great job.

I searched for an hourglass to set for meditation, and this was easily my pick because of the artwork. After using it, I bought all 4 additional skins in order to thank/support the author— then found the Kraken to be my favorite (for now).

Though the graphics are bizarre, I love my timer. I use it for yin yoga practice where asanas are held for more than 3 minutes. Standard digital timers are a bit stressful for me for yoga practice, but real sand timers are not adjustable. Some poses I can hold for 5 minutes, others I can only hold for 1 minute. For a free app, it meets my needs. I only wish there were more backgrounds to choose from, but I understand people need to make money. Most of the time I'm not wearing my glasses, so I don't really see the mouse disappearing. I like that I can just flip my phone and the timer starts again, just like a real hourglass. And lastly, with no sound on, it doesn't interfere with Pandora, which is streaming my yoga station. Some of the other hourglass apps stopped it altogether. It's a win-win. Thank you :D
