### 4/5 — Great simple workout timer app

*2024-10-24, version 3.5.7*

App works great for creating flexibility routines.
Would love for there to be a way to group timers together to better manage related timers.

### 5/5 — Best timing app

*2024-05-27, version 3.5.7*

I purchased the app!! Loved that it’s just one price not a monthly subscription! I’ve been creating all my own treadmill workouts and it’s truly amazing!

Mehrere Timer... benutze ich gerne für mein Workout

### 5/5 — Parfaitement adaptée

*2024-02-12, version 3.5.7*

J’ai téléchargé plusieurs applications gratuites de ce genre pour comparer et c’est celle qui m’a le plus plu : le design, les sons, la facilité d’utilisation…pour le moment je n’ai rien à redire. Je m’en sers aussi bien pour le sport que pour la méthode pomodoro.

### 5/5 — Une super Appli

*2024-01-10, version 3.5.7*

### 5/5 — Bisher beste App...

### 5/5 — Simple and perfect

*2023-02-22, version 3.5.7*

It works as it is expected

### 5/5 — Works great for HIIT runs

*2022-07-24, version 3.5.5*

Best app I have found so far. It’s free and has a lot of settings. I only have 1 high/low intensity timer programmed in, so I dont know how many you can have without upgrading. But I only needed 1.

### 5/5 — Très pratique et personnalisable !

Un seul mot : au top

### 5/5 — Love it

*2022-04-02, version 3.5.5*

I love this app. I 100% recommend but not if they start charging a subscription or any of that ridiculous. Exactly what you need to hiit, or any kind of intervals at all.

### 5/5 — Very happy with this app

*2022-02-14, version 3.5.4*

App does what I need. Very happy.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Ads interrupt timers

*2025-12-23, version 3.7.3*

Why would I bother with this?

### 1/5 — Eats battery and money apparently

*2021-03-29, version 3.3.1*

When a 15 minute stretching routine takes me from 99% battery to 57% battery, that’s a problem.  

Also - getting tired of these timers that start off free with no ads, then suddenly have ads after updates.  Forced updates.   It’s a goddamn timer.  Does everyone need a handout for every line of code they write?  How about a model where the free version allows setting up 2 timers or some other limitation, and you pay for the fully featured product.  The fastest way to get me not to buy something is to force ads on me.  

Deleted app.

### 1/5 — Rotation broke

*2021-03-01, version 3.0.1*

After update, will not rotate landscape

### 1/5 — Nun leider mit Werbung zwischen jedem Training

*2021-01-26, version 2.7.2*

Edit... sorry von 5 Sterne zurück auf 1.Stern    klar müsst ihr von etwas leben... aber so macht mir mein Training halt keinen Spaß 

Vorher 5 Sterne 

Mit der neuen Version klappt jetzt alles. 
Also nun die volle Punktzahl

### 1/5 — forced updating

*2020-07-14, version 2.6.0*

Forced updating.  Nothing more to say, really.

### 1/5 — Simple interface but poor functionality

*2019-08-17, version 2.1.1*

Intervals are easy to set up but the signal at the end of the intervals are too weak or do not work at all. On my watch, the haptic feedback was too weak to be felt. I could not figure out how to make the chime work. On my phone, the beep was also too weak to be heard and the vibrate function did not work. I uninstalled this app. The search for a simple interval timer continues.

### 2/5 — Nice app but a few major flaws

*2018-09-17, version 1.1.5*

I can’t listen to music while using it so...

### 2/5 — Needs more features

*2018-07-21, version 1.1.5*

The best design I’ve seen so far but there needs to be warmup and cooldown features to add to workout as well. Also, trying to adjust time by only using the plus and minus signs is irritating. We shpuld be able to type the numbers.

### 3/5 — Parfait

*2025-05-20, version 3.7.1*

L’application est très bien faite, tant visuellement, que dans sa compréhension

### 3/5 — App mysteriously runs in background draining battery

*2021-01-24, version 2.7.2*

I used the app for 2-3 times in the past 10 days but Battery shows the app used 24% of battery and has run a total of 15+ hours in background. Very alarming. But other than that the app suits me need for a basic interval timer.
