### 1/5 — Ugh!!

*2020-03-08, version 3.1.1*

This app would be perfect if it worked when the phone went in sleep mode. But it pauses and throws off the run. Unless that is fixed, this app is a waste of money.

### 1/5 — Not worth the 99c

*2020-02-23, version 3.1.1*

It says it works with your ITunes but if you hop out of the app for any reason it pauses. Take a call while run walking it pauses! Actually go into iTunes and it pauses! Don’t expect much from this app! The one time I went only on description and didn’t read the reviews! Uggh

### 1/5 — Stops working when screen is locked

*2020-01-20, version 3.1.1*

Doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Useless— I’d like my money back.

*2018-11-24, version 3.1.1*

Shuts down after a few minutes in background.  Is not listed in the background apps section of IOS.  In other words keep app open in the foreground with screen on and it works just fine.

### 1/5 — Interval app

*2018-11-20, version 3.1.1*

This is the worst timer app I have used to date. I am training for a half marathon and got tired of always glancing at my watch so purchased this. Works for maybe one interval maybe two then has you run and run: stops the intervals.  This totally throws off my training runs, making it difficult to stay on track because of constantly stopping to mess with phone. Don’t recommend at all.

### 3/5 — Love the app...but no sleep mode

*2018-09-12, version 3.1.1*

I would really love this app if it worked in sleep mode or when I’m looking at other apps while running.

### 2/5 — So so

*2018-07-13, version 3.1.1*

I wish it would download the running info to my iPhone health/fitness app.

### 1/5 — Can’t use 30 seconds increments

*2018-06-05, version 3.1.1*

Just bought this app because it advertise that it can do 30 seconds time increments.

But, when I tried to set it up to do that I only can change it by 60 seconds time increments.

Not cool.

### 2/5 — Needs some work

*2018-02-13, version 3.1.1*

I was hopeful about this app aside from it not having an apple watch function. It was easy to set the intervals and the vibrate function. It vibrated on first interval and then skipped the next 2 so I turned it off. Fix that bug and I’d love to use it.

### 4/5 — Easy to use but doesn’t store history

*2017-11-03, version 3.1.1*

First time using it. Worked ok but it stopped tracking when the phone went into sleep mode. Also would be nice if it logged your workouts over time so that you could see time or distance history.
