User interface suggestions
I just downloaded Yacht Timer because the simple interface and large numbers looked great. Sadly, it’s confusing, so I suggest a change in the interface: 1. Mark ALL “expired” minutes in red; 2. Mark the “current” minute in white*; 3. Leave “future” minutes in black*. Examples (*in Dark mode): 3:24 shows 5,4-red, 3-white, 2,1-black. 1:49 shows 5,4,3,2-red, 1 white. 0:32 shows 5,4,3,2,1-red. Bonus suggestion #1: Make 00 RED upon Start. Bonus suggestion #2: At Start, begin a count-up timer; in background for a minute or two and then revealed, in 00:01:00 format.

Simply Works - needs 2 tweaks
The app is simple and does exactly what you want it to. As noted by others, one tweak is to have the highlighted number of minutes be the number of minutes remaining. If you start a five-minute countdown, the four should be highlighted between 4:59 and 4:00. At 3:59, the three would be highlighted. The five stays highlighted until 4:00, when the four becomes highlighted. My other suggestion is to provide haptic feedback each minute and then three quick buzzes at 30 seconds, two at 20 seconds, one at 10 seconds, one each at 5,4,3,2,1, and a longer one at 0.
