Leave a Review Exercise Timer
  • Not as good as on android- building a workout involves too much swiping

    You can swipe left, swipe right and it’s all too much. I want too swipe right to delete or duplicate an exercise and it takes me to a new page. It’s a bit clunkier than the android version, where it was very easy to build custom workouts.
  • Watch app not so good

    Would have been 5 but the watch app is pretty poor on my series 6
  • Could use shortcut/automation support

    Generally this is a great app, but I would love to be able to trigger specific workouts via iOS Shortcuts.
  • Overall intuitive and makes life easier

    Easy to use, colourful and very effective. The text to speech feature is a nice addition even though it doesn’t always work. This app made my life so much easier when doing my workouts. I took one star off because I wish there was a way to connect your workouts with the Apple Health app, and because when you do repetition sets instead of timed exercises, the app is way less intuitive. But other than that, love it.

    Hi, Thanks for your feedback! I have updated the app to make it easier to set reps. I agree the ui could have been improved. Try it now, it should be much easier.
  • Needs updates

    I like the interface and how easy it is to use. It absolutely fails on my watch, though. It doesn’t provide audio feedback. Worst, it causes the native exercise app on the watch to crash and to fail at reporting data. Since I don’t want to sync my health data with this app (I don’t feel like it’s as accurate), I’m stuck not having any info from my workout at all.

    Extremely disappointing and could be fixed, if the devs haven’t abandoned this all together.

    Hi, the app needs the health data for the heart rate and calorie reading. If you do not grant these the app should still work. Please get in touch on melvin@exercisetimer.net if you wish to discuss this further.
  • Great app, but definitely some flaws

    The app is very enjoyable. The timer looks clean and works nicely, the workouts themselves are great! However, there are some issues with customization of sound. Note that this is completely avoidable, but it is still unnecessary work to have to do

    Hi, can you give me more detail abut this please? We recently fixed a bug related to the voice. perhaps this was the issue you encountered.
  • Great No-Frills Workout Tracker App

    Really like this app. A small learning curve when setting up but works great. Using to track physical therapy exercises which are a mix of repetitions and timed stretches. Like that it’s portable between devices as well. Bravo!
  • Great app for exercising!

    So easy to customize and works great overall - highly recommend if you like creating your own workout routines.
  • Very reliable

    As a personal trainer, fitness and martial artist, I have to say that this app is very reliable for a daily workout routine. Been using this app since 2020 and used it countless times for my workouts👌
  • Awful bell sound

    The bell sound makes using the app almost unbearable
