Not the prettiest looking app but gets the job done Really Well. 
You can save your intervals for your various workouts.

It enough for my necessary to work out

### 2/5 — Average

*2018-06-25, version 1.7*

This would be a great app if it showed you your previous PB during the workout. Unless you know that it’s fairly ineffective from a HIIT training perspective. I would have thought that this would have been an obvious feature.
