## What is Circle Timer?

With Circle Timer you can design any interval program in seconds.

You can use it for basic intervals or create advanced programs with many combinations of different pausing and work.

It's all done from a single graphical interface and no typing is required.

Quick use:
Specify the length of the first interval (Work) and the length of the second interval (Pause). Press Play.

Advanced use:
Set an interval and press + the number of times that the interval is settled. If you change the interval, it is added as a new ball.

### 5/5 — Exactly What I Needed

*2024-01-24, version 2.0.1*

I’ve been using this since 2018, and as long as you keep the app open as instructed, it works perfectly. It is a simple app, but I also find it irreplaceable despite being someone who jumps around productivity apps a lot. I just wanted to write a rating so that it continues to stay—I rely on it a lot.

### 1/5 — Does not send audio signals in IPad

*2021-08-29, version 2.0.1*

The title

### 5/5 — Favolosa, solo che ora non funziona più

*2021-03-08, version 2.0.1*

App davvero tanta roba, per chi è abituato a lavorare con allenamenti a circuito a tempo e HIIT, peccato che da un paio di giorni non funzioni più, novità?

### 5/5 — Timer

*2020-07-04, version 2.0.1*

I like it. It's perfect for my interval workouts.

### 5/5 — Finally infinity

*2020-06-28, version 2.0.1*

This is what I'm looking for

### 5/5 — Einfach und effektiv

*2019-07-26, version 2.0.1*

Perfekt für meine Dehnübungen 😊💪🏼

### 3/5 — Great the first time but...

*2018-04-24, version 2.0.1*

I use this app for running and it worked perfectly the first time I used it, but today it wouldn’t make any sound unless I had my phone opened to the app. If it worked right I’d love it, but until then I’ll try something else

### 2/5 — Da perfezionare

*2017-12-10, version 2.0.1*

Una volta impostato il circuito, se si vuole cambiare una sola sessione, bisogna azzerare tutto il circuito e rifare da capo.
Oltre a ciò, non avvisa vocalmente, qualche secondo prima della scadenza della sessione.

### 5/5 — Perfect timer for Yogic Breathing

*2017-09-07, version 2.0.1*

I am practicing a Yogic Breathing technique (Nadishodhan Pranayama) in which you inhale for 4 seconds, hold your breath inside for 16 seconds, exhale for 8 seconds then hold your breath outside for 4 seconds. Then repeat. Perfect timer app for this!

Unfortunately the app only allows 6 of this iterations at least in the free version. Hope it can allow more soon.

### 5/5 — Great timer

*2017-04-03, version 2.0.1*

I use it in every training. The best timer that I ever try
