Can I find one person who will use my app?

I want to launch my little side-project https://Timer.fm on PH soon, but let’s start small :-) I was quite surprised that something like this didn’t exist yet, so I built it: https://Timer.fm – A Timer With Music for Your Virtual and Physical Events. Use it to: ⏱ Count down to your event with style. ☕️ Keep your crowd entertained during breaks and focused while doing time-boxed sessions. 🎶 Play music from one of three well-crafted stations to drive the mood of your audience. 🍅 or, just enjoy a free focus timer with music for your pomodoro sessions... Music Stations: 🧘 Focus: Relaxing sounds to stay focused while working, studying, or just calming your mind. 🤹 Inspire: Grooving and vibey tracks to listen to in the background while having lively conversations. 🕺 Energize: Positive, uplifting, motivating music that makes you look forward to the things to come. 🎛 DJ Mode: Let our virtual DJ pick tunes that rise in energy level as the timer approaches its end. So be honest :-) Would you use it and how? Happy to receive some feedback!

Just tried it, looks slick. One issue - it would be awesome to have a toggle between the editing and using modes. Right now you have to wait a few seconds for the controls to disappear and it's clunky. Btw regarding some early growth or finding testers, Reddit might be good channel. Use Surfkey.io to find relevant conversations and plug this :)

@a_m4 May I ask: Did you test it on a mobile device or on a desktop/laptop?

Thank you! Interesting feedback about the controls. Maybe it would be an option to have a toggle for show / auto / hide to let the user decide? Also I have been a bit active on Reddit but didn’t know something like surfkey.io exists. I’ll check it out!

Perhaps they could consider creating an interface where users can plan a few work and rest sets. It would be great if users could also play their own music with the app, perhaps as a feature in the pro version. I think it's a fantastic idea and I'm really looking forward to the app's launch. I'm even an early bird of Timer.fm!

@dogukan_tezcan thank you for your feedback! I’m thinking about an „Agenda“ feature as the next big addition, where you can set-up agenda points with pre-defined timers. Glad having you on the mailing list :-)
