Pronto doesn’t reinvent the wheel, it just makes it easier to use. To set a countdown timer, simply turn the dial to adjust the minutes and slide your finger across the bottom to adjust the seconds. Hit start and wait for the alert tone. The app is able to run in the background along with a countdown timer that’s conveniently displayed as an icon badge. Pronto also includes timer history, allowing you to reuse them.

If you like to keep things quick and simple, download Pronto. It’s one of the best and easiest to use timer apps in the entire App Store.

Pronto is dead simple, and maybe to a fault. It lacks a lot of bells and whistles found in similar apps.
