My first reaction to this before clicking the link: why would anyone want a programmable timer?

After clicking the link and seeing the demo: man, I’ve always wanted a programmable timer.

This is awesome, can see myself using this for workouts and focus sessions. Thank you for sharing.

I read this comment, which convinced me to click the link, and had the exact same reaction.

Such a compelling idea - feels completely obvious after seeing the demo that this is what I want in a timer.

I’m wondering whether anything could be done in terms of name/“tagline” to clarify this? (Or maybe this is just a peculiar niche?)

		I think people hear timer web app and they immediately have the reaction like why the f will anyone use this, but your idea is pretty cool in reality. Ideally should not call it a timer or have app in it. Even something like (Name) - A timer that can be programmed will be a better title than what it currently is.
