About Skewr

Skewr keeps every skewer in the pot on its own timer. Pick a cooking style, a skewer color and a food with its ready-made cooking time, then start the clock. Each timer shows when it will be ready, adjusts by 30 seconds, and sounds an alarm when the food is done, with a one-tap Another round to put it back in.
