It's really helpful, when it actually works. Unfortunately, it stopped working after about a month or so.

It worked great at first - everything was running smoothly for about 3 hours. Then out of nowhere, the pop-up notifications on my PC just stopped showing up. The sound still plays though, which is weird.

The idea of this app is great but it needs some work. First of all, the timer is off. It's slow. By the end of the day it's a good 6 minutes off from another timer I use for non-Chrome apps. It could have more sound offerings too. Lastly and most importantly, a second audio should sound once the 20 seconds is up or you might find yourself looking at the screen to see when the timer is done. That defeats the whole purpose of looking away from the screen. These are minor tweaks which would make the app much better.

The new update is nice, thanks for the developer update: I thought it was nice but no. no notification when rest timer finish. the rest timer start notification keep on showing up over and over again and the sound is really noisy. I understand that issues can show up when developing any software or extension so i will be glad to use this extension again if you fix those problems so yeah have a nice day.
