WHAT THEY ASK FOR
- It would be very useful if you could add the option to add more than 10 eggs per boil. 5★, Apr 11, 2024
- I should have realised that I had 6 boiled eggs in the pan, so that increases cooking time a little but now I understand, will adhere to it next time. 5★, Jun 4, 2022
- Can you add bigger egg sizes for chicken than XL? 5★, Nov 24, 2021
- Easy to use usually needs an extra 20 seconds for soft boiled though. 5★, Oct 10, 2021
- The Other Day I Was Just Thinking it Would Be Great to Have Something to Use to Time How Long to Cook an Egg & I Found This App Online & it Worked Great For Me. 5★, Aug 18, 2020
- Wish you could set a custom timer instead of the times they have. 3★, Jul 30, 2020
- Hope you add games here so People will keep this app even when it is not in use... 5★, May 6, 2020
- However, my eggs crack when i add them to the water when the water is boiling, i need to add them while the water is cold. 4★, Mar 1, 2020
