Questions, answered
See all FAQs →- What is TasteTimer?
- One cooking timer for every food, tuned to how you like it. Pick a food, pick your doneness, and get a tested timer with staged step alerts — flip, stir, rest, serve — right on your Lock Screen. Perfect eggs, tea, coffee, pasta, steak, toast and everything after.
- Do I need an internet connection?
- No. Timers run fully offline — once the app is installed everything works with zero network. An account is only needed for cross-device sync, saved presets and TasteTimer+ features.
- What are staged timers?
- Staged timers break a cook into ordered steps with their own alerts — “Sear side A”, “Flip”, “Rest before slicing”. Each step fires a banner and a chime so you never miss the moment. Staged timers are a TasteTimer+ feature.
- Can I run more than one timer at once?
- Yes, with TasteTimer+. Parallel timers let you cook eggs, toast and coffee together, each labelled and counting down independently. The free plan runs one timer at a time.
