Great App--Works as Advertised
In searching for a good, programable interval timer, I downloaded (and paid for!) a couple of so-so apps before I came across this one, which absolutely blows the others out of the water. It's completely programable, intuitive and--unlike the others I came across--provides real support and instructions. Creating and editing sessions is a breeze, and the interface is clean and, as far as I can tell, bug free. Seriously, drop the $1.99, program it to do what you want, and get down to business.

Great app, perfect for sprint training.
Love the way you can personalise screen and sound. Recording own sound is nice touch.
Recommendation would be to allocate tunes to intervals - would be great if I could hear specific power tunes for sprint intervals.
Excellent app, well thought out.

Simply fantastic
Exactly what I was looking for. Times workout intervals and plays from my music. So glad I found this!!!! A+
Absolutely Fantastic... Love It
I only bought this App today and it's fantastic! My kids and I wanted to increase our Suppleness so at the moment we've primarily used it for a stretch routine, and it's Great, as I've set up a transition time between each exercise and used the count down as a leg or arm swap.
If you want to programme your workout, and not look at a scrap of paper and can't remember what you're going to do next or not Cheat, then this is so amazing, I think I'm now going to programme a routine for me.
I also like how you can add your "timers" together, so you can mix and match your workouts, Super!

Great app!
Fantastic App! Does exactly what I need it todo. This is way more configurable than the others I've seen. Imho, this beats the others - no question. For those hunting around for an app that you can configure to your needs, rather than adapting to someone else's workout schedule- start looking at this app first. I wish I had.
A couple suggestions:
1) Give an option to start a specified iPod playlist with each timer or interval, or just continue with the currently playing playlist, or no music. I like to randomize the songs to avoid monotony, but my warmup music isn't what I want for my training music. This will allow for quiet time during break intervals too.
2) Choose interval warning sounds from iPod songs so I can make/import my own clean mp3's and use them for transition sounds.
3) The fade out/pause music doesn't seem to work very well for me, so it's hard to tell if you support fade out when using Pandora as well. Maybe that needs a second look.
Anyway, these are my top three sugguestions. This is a great app already- I'm looking forward to what you have planned for the future.
Well done!

New version works great - an essential app for me
I've used UltraTimer since it first came out and love it even though I prefer some of the older versions with easier volumn adjustments and fewer sounds to choose from.
Thanks for all the updates and a great product.

Working again
5.3 seems to be working properly again. Very useful. Be cautious of upgrades although beta testing should improve.
Sound does not work - neither does customer service
Ultratimer sounds stop announcements mid session rendering use of this product frustrating and maddening. You are left in the middle of a workout session NOT knowing what to do next without constantly watching the timer display. I find this product then useless.
It seemed to BREAK in 5.2 release. What is even more maddening is CUstomer Service has not acknowledged the previous 'sound stopping' complaints and issued either a) an option to download previous release OR b) state intended direction to fix. Instead ONE is left wondering if this product is of any use.
IN MY HUMBLE OPINION..... beware of ANY 'Plain and Simple' software products based on customer service response. It really isn't that hard to perform good customer service.

After recent update not functioning
If I had reviewed this before the recent update it would have been a 5* but since update and format change it is unusable and constantly cuts sounds out to signal end of rounds or beginning which wish I could revert back to the trouble free original version as this one I would not pay for now had to download other timers to get the result although still not as good as the original format sort it please

Why does the sound stop working
This app is awesome and totally worth the price. However, why does the sound stop working after a while. Its really annoying when your relying on the sound to tell you to stop or start. Awesome app but please fix this problem and I can give it 5 stars.
