### 2/5 — Great UI, one big drawback

*2024-06-09*

I really like the app for its simplicity, especially in comparison with other apps of that type. It only has one big and for me annoying drawback: the StandBy is not disabled. So if you are doing some exercises you always have to look for the app if the screen is darkening and you have to tap the screen. Otherwise the you will do the exercise forever, because there is no signal anymore. 😁
If this is fixed, I would happily give 5 stars.

### 1/5 — Timer turns off when screen is off

*2022-05-29*

Pointless when it doesn’t alert you of your time when your phones screen is off

### 5/5 — Perfect, flawless workout interval time

*2021-04-24, version 1.0.1*

A big thanks to the developers. This app makes strength training professional and controlled.

### 5/5 — No ads, great design, just works.

*2020-08-25, version 1.0.1*

Super simple, no ads, great design. A good interval timer
