This is a nicely executed timer application. In my limited testing (only had it a day), it performs quite well. Saved alarms that auto-start on opening can cut out a click or two from starting a timer for common tasks like moving clothes from the washer to the dryer. Also, as OS X disables "at" by default, this is a really easy way to schedule checking a web page at a particular time. Its flexibility and design open the possibility to use it in more interesting ways, though I think the scheduler will need a little more flexibility to reach its full potential.
The developer is also responsive to feedback.

Glad to hear SimpleTimer is useful. The GUI is currently being modified to improve ease of use: a preview screenshot is available here. As you can see there's a clear separation between scheduling, actions, and activation. Hopefully the new design will work for everyone. Nightly builds of current development can be found at Cubelogic website. --EPReply to This
