I want to love this

Honestly, I can’t figure out how to use it!

App stops when phone locks

They need to change their app settings so when it is open your phone doesn’t lock and th timers stop - or - when your phone locks the timer keeps going. Fix this it’ll be an excellent app, without it it’s a real pain!

Timer shuts off if phone goes to sleep

The timer shuts off when the phone isn’t touched/goes to sleep. What is the point! If I wanted to touch it every thirty seconds I could just use Apple’ built in timer. Pointless

Worst app ever

Screen turns off after 30 second. App is useless.

Meh

Doesn’t even stop the screen from locking. Wow.

Can’t time longer than 30 sed

If the phone auto locked then the app also stop timing

Freeze

The app keeps freezing on me and have to restart it

Totally pointless - Screen turns off after 40 seconds!

Totally pointless. May as well be using a stop watch because you still have to return to your phone after 40 seconds to make sure it hasn’t switched off! When it switches off it PAUSES the workout!

Look for a better app

Not the best app on the market and it's infested with ads. Low quality app.

Not my favourite

I have to keep my phone up and it feels cheep

Workout timer

I love this app! Use it for personal workouts and team conditioning. Let’s the music play thru and announces halfway marks on the timer. Great background tool, makes all the difference!

Dysfunctional at best

1. Either remove your pop up ads or find a way to slip them in without interrupting the workout. Every other time I open this app I am led to a grotesque website advertising something that doesn’t even remotely match my algorithm. No thanks.

2. Stop interrupting the workout. If my phone gets a SINGLE notification, or heaven forbid the screen sleeps to conserve energy, the workout is STOPPED COMPLETELY until you manually go in and restart it. DOES NOT MATTER if you click the lock icon or not.

3. Music is muted by half when this app is open. This is extremely annoying if you listen to music on other apps.

Work on your app and do better.

Lots of bugs/issues

I gave two stars only because you can adjust your work time, prep time and rest time, and the amount of rounds. That’s the only decent part. Otherwise, it closes out every time you adjust a setting and it freezes when you try to play music. If you start your workout timer and then go to settings to adjust anything, it stops and doesn’t resume, you have to start over entirely. You can’t switch off from the app and still have it working in the background and also can’t turn screen off and have it working . Used once for run/walk intervals and would have enjoyed responding to texts, switching music, etc during my rest periods.

The timer keeps stopping half way through the HIIT timer

For some reason the timer keeps stopping and I have to stop my workout and keep restarting the timer. I’m using an iPhone 12 Pro

Minimal effort, UX is terrible

There isn’t a clear back button when trying to create time intervals, the app flashes and minimizes hen you can see the app’s Home Screen. The voice is robotic and mundane a simple timer sound or boxing bells would have sufficed. Overall this feels like a lazily crafted app.

Worse

Will Time out on you if your screen lock and loose your progress…

Does not work when my iPhone goes into standby

It is easy set up
But one MAJOR DOWNSIDE is that when I start it and workout my phone will go into “standby” and the app doesn’t work

The intervals are terrible and don’t alert you during training

I haven’t been able to do a proper round on this yet. The alarm does not sound on the intervals

Yikes

Can’t listen to music while using the app.

Highly recommended

It is much better than the regular timer it tracks the time and tells you with a voice.
