inidrog: Saving timers was already on my ToDo list. Don't know when I'll get to it though. Ability to make timers sticky is a great idea, thanks. I'll add it when I'm done with saving/loading.

If you had heard the self-recorded sound I tested with, you'd be happy to have this one instead ;) I agree a better default sound would be needed, but it depends on me managing to find one in Public Domain or to record one... Thanks for your comments.

Please add feature to save timers. Make as many as you like "sticky" the next time KA is started.

Default sound is horrible :)

Good ideas Andreas. I'll add a remove button and multiline for text in the next release. All timers count down negatively after reaching zero, so that you can see how much you are overdue... But a 00:00 timer doesn't alert at all... I'll fix that. Thanks for your comments!

  • Perhaps add a max width (or multiline) for text. If text is longer than screen it will force sidescrolling and make the app slow.
  • How about a button for deleting timers? Right now a program restart is required.
  • If you add a 00:00 timer it will begin counting down negatively
