Intuitive dial control

Turn the outer knob to adjust cooking time. The dial fits every minute and supports up to 12 hours of total duration. Tap the central button to start, pause, and resume at any time.

Cook by steps

Create checkpoints that trigger an alarm at a specific cooking time. Choose After starting or Before finishing reference modes—schedule a reminder to add herbs 10 minutes after the oven starts and another to serve 5 minutes before finishing, all from a single timer.

Live Activity

Your timer progress appears on the Lock Screen with Live Activity, keeping your cooking schedule visible without opening the app.

Spoken reminders

Type an optional short phrase for each step and preview it right away. Your phrase plays with the alarm and keeps repeating until you stop it, so you never miss what to do next.

Apple Watch support

When your alarm fires, iOS can automatically forward the alert to a paired Apple Watch for quick, wrist-ready reminders.

No data collected

Cooking Timer does not collect any personal data. Everything stays on your device.
