  • Needs a few more things to be perfect

    I love the simplicity of this app and it almost meets the need of what I’ve been looking for. Three things that would make this perfect:
    1) a tabulation of total time of the workout you’ve created before getting started
    2) announcements at the cool down period and at the congratulations screen, like the warmup and the intervals have (I put my phone in a running belt so if it doesn’t talk to me, I don’t know I’m at this point)
    3) the ability to still announce when the screen is turned off. Right now, if I turn off the screen it will notify me visually but not over audio. And because I’m not looking at my phone while running, I have to keep my screen bright.

  • Great app!

    Would give 5 stars but only 2 options - run or walk. For longer workouts and choosing a run/walk/jog split it would be nice to change intervals based on set vs having just a set run or walk period. Still a great app!
  • Sound

    Will gladly change rating if problem can be fixed:

    Can’t get sound to notify when phone is closed, I have music playing, but other apps have reduced the volume to give interval alert.

    I’ve checked my settings, and another similar app works just fine, but this one won’t and I’d prefer to use this one if I can get it working.

  • Exactly what I needed

    Perfect for what I needed. Most reviews are old and they have fixed what folks were complaining about. I did have to purchase the $1.99 upgrade to get more than 10 minutes of running time, but that’s common so I didn’t mind spending it. Very straightforward and so simple to use. Super happy with this app no complaints so far!!

  • Well-done app but most options not free (freemium)

    This app is easy to use and works well. But most options require $2 upgrade. The free version gets you about 10 minutes of run time (although you can quickly start a new cycle) and limited time ranges for walk/run.
  • Does not work for me :(

    In principle I love the idea of this simple app. Sadly, it does nit work for me. The app does not work on lock mode, but when it is unlocked and in my pocket it also stops working. Today it reprogrammed itself while in my pocket, walk interval turned to 50 minutes and total exercise time to 5000 minutes. I am not kidding. Need to look for something else.

  • Ok app if you stare at screen

    The app was easy to set up and loud enough for me to hear but I don’t hold my phone in my hand when I run. I locked my screen to put it in my pocket and none of the reminders made any sound. Really disappointed.
  • Do not recommend

    I have this app on iPhone. Don’t get audio notifications when phone is on Lock Screen so I have to leave phone screen on for the whole run. If I get ANY other notification while app is running it freezes and won’t restart timer. I have to reset the entire run. Very limited features compared to price and bug issues. Not worth the money if you’re an actual runner looking for interval training.

  • Developer responds!

    I had a small issue and sent an email to the developer. I received a response right away and was helped immediately. Great, simple and effective app.

    Thanks Starr!
  • Verbal cues

    When I turn my screen off (while listening to Bluetooth earbuds) to put my phone in my pocket while I run, the verbal cues do not work. I ended up having to carry my phone in my hand with the screen on. Otherwise the app is great, simple and easy to use. Mostly does what I was looking for.

    Hi, thanks for feedback! Please try the latest update, now voice prompts work even with locked phone, and it has some other improvements too :)
