IPhone/iPod Touch Roast Timer program

Postby ljguitar on Fri Jan 08, 2010 3:06 am

Hi all...
There is a new iPhone/iPod Touch roasting program titled RoastTimer. It permits entering a total time into the timer, and then dropping in markers on the fly (which can be edited later). It has a note's section, and saves the history of the roast.

Initially there was a bug which caused it to crash when you put more than 3 markers in it, but that is fixed...this has real promise! They fixed the bug within days of posting the program which leads me to believe they are monitoring the progress of the program and open to updates..

I'll still back it up with paper but I see this as a usefully designed program...

RoastTimer-Click here

Functions:
Timer - user definable (setable) - signals end, but permits you to go beyond prescribed time
Markers on the fly - called ''Time Stamp'' - click on it, add one (edit later if you want something renamed)
History - also can be edited
Title - can be edited like Brazilian P3-D-1# 10oz

I think it's worth the $2.99 and am going to give it a workout - I'll report back on it.



I'm going to give it a whirl and report back to you...
