Noodle Timer turns cook time into a live, five-stage firmness meter — Firm to Soft — instead of a plain countdown. Forget your cup? An overtime alert pings every 15 seconds until you catch it. It also logs every bowl: weekly, monthly and yearly charts of your noodle habits, plus a ramen log with shop, rating, category and photo for every cup. Free, offline, no account, 10 languages. Just a small banner ad — no subscriptions, no premium tier.
