### 1/5 — Not working

*2020-08-09*

Intervall Timer is not working! Do not buy and waste money!

**Developer response:** The application randomly selects a direction, prompting you to sprint towards a nearby marker in that direction. Subsequently, you zoom back to touch the screen, displaying your elapsed time. Continue this process until you feel fatigued, at which point you can take a break when the time increases. Consistent use of the application can effectively reduce your time and enhance your reaction time.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-01-30*

I should have listened to the other reviewers. The only way you make it work is by clicking START and STOP manually. 
The developer claims it works but it DOESN’T.

**Developer response:** The application randomly selects a direction, and you are tasked with sprinting to a nearby marker in that direction and subsequently returning to touch the screen. The application will display the duration of your journey to and from the marker. Continue this process until you experience fatigue, and take breaks when you observe an increase in the elapsed time. Consistent use of this application will result in a reduction in your travel time and an enhancement of your reaction time.

### 1/5 — Functionality broken?

*2019-05-28*

I assumed the app would call out signals in a random internal. However, once pressing steh START button, the app immediately calls out GO and then nothing happens.In this state, it is useless.

**Developer response:** The app will randomly pick a direction, and it’s your turn to dash to a nearby marker in that direction and then zoom back to touch the screen. The app will show how long it took you to get there and back. Keep doing this until you’re tired, and rest when you notice the time getting longer. If you keep using this app, you’ll see your time getting shorter and your reaction time getting better!

### 1/5 — Could this get fixed?

*2019-04-23*

I just got this app, when I press go, it gives the signal but is not followed by another signal

**Developer response:** The app will randomly call out a direction. This is your cue to sprint to a nearby marker in that direction and immediately return to touch the device’s screen. The app will display the time taken for this round trip. Continue this exercise until you feel fatigued, and the time increases. By consistently using this app, you’ll notice a decrease in the time taken and an improvement in your athletic reaction over time.

### 1/5 — Not random

*2014-04-02*

Bought due to description claiming a sound at random intervals. It's not random, intervals remains set at pre-set timing unless manually changed.

**Developer response:** This is not true. The sound is random; the slider only controls the max time between chimes. Low slider setting causes chimes between .5 and 1 second. A high slider setting causes chimes between .5 and 5 seconds.
