Leave a Review Seconds Interval Timer
You’re Missing-out
If you are not already using this one-of-a-kind app you’re missing-out. Go ahead and try the others. I’m serious when I SHOUT there are no others that compare. I’ve been in the fitness and health arena for nearly 11-Years and I’ve tried them all. Stationed here in Singapore (California-native) this is my go-to tool. The best thing s about ‘Seconds’ are: (1) the incredible intuitive voice prompts; (2) the music sync and external-play options; (3) the customisable+template choices and (4) the creators dogged follow-up on updates and bug-fixes. You just don’t get a company (and I believe it’s a two person team😃) to care this much. BOOM baby!!!Show lessBillnasia
Great timer app
This app is very sleek and easy to use. My favourite feature is that it is able to be fully customised as needed so that there are no restrictions on how I do my workout. Would like to upgrade to pro but I only have $6 on my account 😆Spazz/\monkeyx
Worth the money!
I never write reviews on apps.. And here I am, writing one. Not only that, but I decided to write this the day after first using it.
This app is fantastic. I decided to take up jumping rope. I found a solid workout online where you have a four set warm-up, alternating between three exercises.. Followed by an eight set workout, alternating between different exercises. Sound confusing??
So I write it all down on paper.... Annoying, but whatever. Then I realize that I need to search for an interval timer because I don't have a clock in my jump rope space. I didn't want to use my phone stopwatch because I wanted it to be easy to listen to music.
I'm sure that doing all of that would have been possible, although pretty inconvenient. When the whole circumstance to starting my workout is too complicated, that's the best way to make me quit. I'm lazy.
So I spent ten minutes, setting up my customized interval workout for my new jump rope routine - pairing each type of exercise with a new song. And now I get to save this timer, along with any workout I challenge myself with in the future. What easier way to keep my workouts interesting and challenging!!
In short, Seconds is likely going to lead to a fitter version of myself. Thank you for making it!Show lessAlbeeCakes
The only timer you need
I've had dozens of timers on my phone over the years. But this is the only one that has the power, flexibility and simplicity to have earned and kept it's position on my phone's landing screen.
Seconds has dozens of features that I now have taken for granted and wonder why no one else has all of 'em.
Eg create folders for all your different timers for easy context and access (workout timers vs cooking timers vs boardgame timers etc).
Fully flexible speech so that you can be easily prompted what's next in a sequence.
And talking of sequences you can easily set up loops of time to repeat (eg Sprint/rest - do this 10 times) without having to enter it all manually.
If you really want to get creative you can set a timer within a timer within a timer etc for nested loops (I actually need this for one application). But you can quickly do something as readily as set a 3 minute timer for brewing coffee.
Creativity allows easy color coding.
Pragmatism shows with large easy to read displays that can be stopped/started/reset/repeated with easy pushes - nothing fiddly.
Support from the developer is amazing (as is his other app, Heavyset). All in all - this app does amazingly in a world in which literally hundreds of other apps simply fall short. Invaluable.Show lessZiipppp2
Instead of upgrading from free app, do this
For apple users: if you want to be able to share the app with family, do this: don’t upgrade the app in response to the ads. You won’t be able to do family sharing if you upgrade because apple sharing is not available for “in-app purchases”. Instead, purchase the Seconds Pro interval timer from the App Store. That way, the app can be shared with your family.
This is a great app, as many others have described in great detail in prior reviews. I won’t repeat the great features here, read the other reviews. I do a variety of circuit training and HIIT workouts and enjoy making up my own routines. The timer has helped me keep on time, which made my workouts more intense and efficient. I am very happy with this app and would buy it again. As it turns out I will buy it again since I can’t family share the upgrade. My daughter and husband both want the timer.Show lessBlaisd
Everything I wanted!!
Seriously, I dreamed this app up years ago! So excited to find something that exactly matched what I needed. I follow a range of workouts and assessments and this app allows me to programme them all in, choose sets/ exercises/ rests and then, my favourite bit, MUSIC!! This app couldn't be more perfect for your workout needs. Thanks folks for a great app!!
Just updating. I've used it almost every single day for 2 years and it's incredible. Buy the full version and support great apps! This one is worth every single penny! (And more but don't tell them that ;))Show lessFreysta
Excellent Workout Program
I tried Seconds for a couple of workouts before I bought. I do crossfit type of workouts in a gym class, but I needed something to keep me moving at a pressured, cardio pace when out of town. I found my old workouts saved when I bought the app, and I was able to modify and copy them. I also made myself an 11-minute warmup routine and a 14-minute stretching routine for cool-down. I've used it 3 times this week while on vacation, and it has worked as planned. A decent value for my needs. UPDATE: Still using this app occasionally 9 months out from buying it, and I still think it's excellent. Glad I bought it.Show lessSemibald
It would be a great app if the Rest Period and Prep Time functions worked.
UPDATED: The iCloud backup feature does not work between devices, which kind of defeats the purpose.
I was able to create yoga sequence timers; however, I had to go back into the timers to edit them just to add prep timers between each interval (asana change), as the Rest Period and Prep Time functions do not work; actually, the Prep Timer works only for the beginning of the routine, not in between intervals. Also, it would be nice to be able to choose two interval sound options like the Text to Speech (pre warn) with the Gong. Other than that, this is a good app to have for yoga, mediation, and interval training as it takes the guess work out so that you can focus on the actual asana, meditation, or workout.Show lessMystiqueASAP
No more wasted minutes mid-workout
I absolutely love this app. I started with the free version but I am SO happy I bought the full version. I do circuit training and HIIT running and this has completely streamlined and optimized my workouts. My favorite feature is the text to speech function. No more looking at my phone fifty times during a workout to remind myself what exercise is next. That means minutes more of focused work out and high heart rate. I have also built out a bunch of saved circuits so when I go to the gym, I just press go and workout for forty minutes without ever having to look at my phone. Great app, 100% satisfied.Show lessanonymonica
Excellent
Have been using this app for nearly 2 years and I LOVE it! I've been able to share workouts with others as well as create my own. Wherever my phone is I can work out. It's been on holidays overseas when I can't get to a gym and great when it's raining or too cold/dark outside. Very easy to use. Highly recommended!!Show lessKarste2
