Couldn't find how to make a custom time with delay, only increment. Local tournaments to me only use delay. I also would like to be able to have both times facing symmetrically, instead of toward each player so i can more easily see my opponents number without needing to break concentration to read it upside down. Overall: extremely simple and effective.

Hi! There 3 types of increment you can chooose from in the custom time settings: delay, bronstein and fischer. Go to Time Controls, then Custom Time for a specific time control, choose a Stage and go to Increment.

I was hoping there would be an app for it and this is by far the best one as you can sit your phone parallel with the chess board and I had the best Thanksgiving playing with my niece. So satisfying about the entire ritual of seeing your clock start making your move then starting the timer on your opponent. the colors are great there are countless timing options and completely customizable ones for rapid chest or for teaching and the audible click and smooth response are most satisfying. 5+

The timer is working okay, but the font size on the time display is too big, so for any value above 10 minutes it wraps around to the next line, which looks awful. Perhaps it has something to do with my phone or its configuration (I have POCO X3, not exactly an ancient phone), but in any case, there is no need to make the font this big. It's always prudent to leave some extra space around the display and not stuff it chock-full of information.
