Best countdown app for bar timer, it loads fast, not like other apps where it pushes the page down, and it loads after the webpage loads. It seems like the bar timer loads instantly with no delay, like it's part of the theme, it cost money and now i see why because it's better than most, if not all, timer apps. I've tried a handful before using this one.

This app is very easy to use. The free version does includes all the basic necessities for a great countdown timer. If you want more customization, there are other plans for a paid upgrade, however, I don't think you'd generally need them. Overall a great, simple to use app for any Shopify store owner looking to add a countdown timer to their store.

This Shopify plugin works great, but what really stood out was the developer’s excellent support. Matas and their team responded promptly to our concerns and demonstrated a clear understanding of our requirements. The solutions provided were well-executed and enhanced the overall functionality of our store. Our store highly recommends this plugin.
