No more rep counter
Just a regular timer app now. After the big update they removed the rep counter feature. That was the best standout feature of this timer. Nothing special
Or different now.

New app is unsable
So you set up a timer and leave the room while it’s running. Everything goes hay wire the timer resets and just starts beeping continuously
So you set up a timer and try to build another while that is running. How about we just shutdown your current timer without warning while you try to run another in the background.
This app update only rivals Sonos distres disastrous update in its ability to ruin a perfectly good solution. I have invested so much in this platform over the past 10 years. I can’t run my gym this way so it might be time to go

Updates
I really like some of the updates and some not so much.
My biggest complaint is that you can’t revise your previously used timers. After you spend five minutes setting up a mixed interval timer and realize you made a mistake part way through the workout, you have to re set up the whole thing mid workout.

Trash-App Update Ruined Perfectly Good Product
I use to recommend and love these clocks and app. Not anymore. I was finally forced to update to the latest version and it’s terrible. Very glitchy, not user friendly like before. No one asked for this update! And now a subscription for certain features. Give us the old version back.
Update is terrible
This app was Perfect before they went in and re-configured the entire app. Nothing was the same, colors, buttons, formats - all different. I dont even know how to turn off our clocks anymore at our gym with this new update. It’s complicated and over programmed. Prior to the update, everything was seemless, easy to navigate and easy to read. They did way too much, I wish there was a way to revert back to the original version.

Not a good update
We lost the ability to cast up the timer to bigger TV screen when we do sparring training. Now we need to pay to cast up. Very frustrating and disappointing of the developers update.
Glitches
Timer was working absolutely amazing i recommend it to all my trainer friends!! But ever since the update it has been horrible…Glitches every round stops in the middle of the countdown!! Please fix because i dont want to have to get a new timer I love this one!!
Terrible Update
The update for this app has been absolutely terrible. It worked incredibly well and was easy to use. This new update keeps restarting my timers, doesn’t allow a rest period after the final round like it used. No idea why they would change a good thing. TERRIBLE app compared to what it used to be
Ruined
New user interface completely destroyed this timer. Used to be pretty straightforward and user-friendly. Now it’s overcomplicated. Buggy. Why on earth would you reinvent the wheel it was working just fine.
Please change back to old design!
As a fitness instructor I need to quickly be able to work the timer app - and now this new version comes along and frustrates every coach in our gym! It is not simple to use anymore. The designs are difficult for the eyes to follow. Overall, it’s a huge miss!
Don’t fix what ain’t broke
New app sucks compared to the old. It used to be super straightforward and easy to use. Now it’s overly complicated and less intuitive. It’s a timer. Don’t over complicate things.
Tabata rest interval
The rest interval between tabatas is not working correctly.
Update after update. Still trash
User interface is slightly better. Still won’t even attempt to pick up my timer. This was not an issue before the update. Still trash.
Welcome to the new bloated UI
New UI is awful. So much extra stuff no one needs. Who needs planning and an account and class management and videos and heart rate tracking.
It’s a timer for crying out loud. We just need the different types of timers and that’s it. No need for the extras. Especially when they make it impossible to quickly fire up a timer for a workout.
Just such a waste.

Updated Review!
I was amongst the many people complaining about the update. Thankfully Gym Next listened to us and gave us the option to keep the original simple interface! Maybe one day I’ll continue to try out the new version but I honestly appreciated the original.
What I want to note is the customer service. Not only did they respond to my comment on facebook and Instagram I was also emailed about my discrepancies. This led to us finding a bug in the update which will be corrected in the next update. I always appreciate not only a company willing to listen to its customers but also one who’s willing to make sure the experience is pleasant.
Gym Next remains my favorite gym timer app and will continue to be the ONLY app I use !

Update is terrible
The new update is horrendous! So hard to navigate. It is so clunky. We need simple so we can get in quick to adjust timers!
Dear God roll back to V5
Autoplay launch video on by default? And a subscription?!?! For a timer app - Are you insane!? I don't want an "experience" I just want to control my timer as easily and quickly as possible. Nothing was broken on V5, this new UI is a step in the wrong direction. Looking at alternatives now that use a remote.

Great timer, poor app
Love the actual timer and the original app. New app update is much more confusing to use and has a clunky interface. Wish I could get the old app back.
Was great until it was updated
I used to love this app, but I can’t stand it now it’s been updated. I get videos that I don’t want. It’s harder to navigate and it’s not nearly as user-friendly.
THE NEW LAYOUT IS TERRIBLE
Please give us an option to go back to the old layout. This new layout is AWFUL. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Trash. Switching clocks.
