### 5/5 — Gets the job done

*2026-08-07, version 2.2.8*

Been using this little app for years now. Does exactly as advertised, does it job extremely well, with lots of customization options. Simply works.

### 5/5 — Très simple à utiliser

*2026-08-03*

Réglage en quelques secondes ,bips de début et de fin , occupé la totalité de l’écran (visible à distance ) et changement de couleur ( préparation,exercice et repos)
Bien sur le nombre de séries est réglable.

### 5/5 — Perfect interval timer

*2026-08-03, version 2.2.8*

Keeping things simple
so they do exactly what they should without a load of pointless features, frills metrics is what works for me. The customisation and features are great. A well thought out, refined app. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-08-02, version 2.2.8*

Great simple app that also has a lot of customization if needed. Well done to the developers

### 5/5 — Incroyable

*2026-08-02*

Cette application est vraiment fait pour le sport par exemple quand je fais du hit cela est incroyable. Le temps est bien, tu entends des sons quand il reste trois secondes.

### 5/5 — Gives you what you need and doesn’t try to charge you.

*2026-07-23, version 2.2.8*

The fact these timer apps think they can charge us is ridiculous. It’s a timer?!  But this app is free. Is there adds at the bottom? Yes. But who cares. You can use the app. 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Wonder for my PT & gym workouts

*2026-07-23, version 2.2.8*

This app was recommended by my physical therapist to do my PT exercises. It was free. It is elegant in its simplicity & didn’t take me much time (a 55 y.o non techi) to set it up. I’m using for my other workouts too. It also helps keep me focused & on track (someone with ADHD who forgets what rep or exercise I am on).

### 5/5 — It works fine

*2026-07-17, version 2.2.8*

Stop asking me to write a damn review.

### 3/5 — Editing Saved Timer

*2026-07-16, version 2.2.8*

Maybe I am a complete dunce when it comes to editing a saved timer but I am constantly prompted that “changes will not be saved” when I exit a timer I just edited. Nowhere on my screen do I see a “Save Changes” icon. What am I missing?

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-07-15, version 2.2.8*

Use it all the time for training, lots of different customisations available to make and save. Everything you need!

### 5/5 — Best interval timer

*2026-07-14, version 2.2.8*

Downloaded a few interval apps. This is the only one that let me create fully custom intervals, all the others only let you set X working time, Y rest. Great for my core circuit that I do

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-07-12, version 2.2.8*

I may be currently in so much pain because of my workout, but the app is great. Nice that you can preset workouts, but it would be nice to be able to collapse these to just the title so it doesn’t take up too much space. Great app, love using it for workouts!

### 5/5 — My Day One Interval Timer

*2026-07-10, version 2.2.8*

This has been my favourite interval timer since I started training over 10 years ago! Easy to use and options for simple interval timer and options for doing rounds at various times. Everything I need and I recommend it to anyone in the gym!

### 5/5 — Love this, need super sets

*2026-07-10, version 2.2.8*

The option to repeat a group of intervals would make this app so much easier.

### 5/5 — Perfect interval timer app

*2026-07-08, version 2.2.8*

Great app. And no subscription. Just pay once and ad free forever. Glad to support this app 👍🏻

### 5/5 — Great and helpful

*2026-07-03, version 2.2.8*

Using this timer with my physical therapy has helped me with my recovery at home!

### 5/5 — Brilliant App

*2026-06-29, version 2.2.8*

This interval timer is perfect, it has a simple option but also an advanced programmable mode which is perfect for couch to 5k where the intervals aren’t the same.

### 5/5 — 👊

*2026-06-29, version 2.2.8*

Best

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Sets

*2025-10-04, version 2.2.8*

No te deja poner las sets en el formato personalizado

### 1/5 — Not working continued in background mood

*2025-08-21, version 2.2.8*

Not Keep working in background mood

### 1/5 — Piece of Junk

*2025-06-15, version 2.2.7*

I see all the five star reviews. I don’t get it. No matter how many times I configure this thing, it just reverts to whatever its default is. JUST wasted 30 minutes in the gym  on a totally useless app.

### 1/5 — The sound loss

*2025-02-25, version 2.2.6*

From time to time the app looses the sound. So I have to delete it and download again. Could you please fix this? Thanks

### 1/5 — Buggy on iOS

*2024-11-01, version 2.2.6*

Timer goes silent after a while. Need to look at my phone to track time lapsed

### 1/5 — Not reliable when in background, beeps stopped working

*2024-10-07, version 2.2.6*

All of a sudden the beeps stopped working, the app started to speak out the activity names, this is terrible. 
I realize this is probably not a frequent use case, but when I am doing my plan I like to read or watch something on the phone. Sadly this app is often killed/paused in the background and the notification never comes. 
Also, what's the deal with up and down arrows in the advanced mode? They are not explained anywhere.

### 1/5 — Almost absolutely perfect

*2023-10-29, version 2.2.5*

The app does everything it says it would for free and is perfect, I don’t mind the minor ads here and there either (they only pop up as little squares or when you first open the app not as videos). Only feature I wish you would add is that the app works with the new Dynamic Islands of IPhone 14pros to iPhone 15 and above. All I would like it to do is show the time in the Dynamic Island and maybe be the colour of what it is (I.e rest, start or stop). That way you would still be able to view the time even when outside the app. Other than that it is a great app and I highly recommend it.

### 1/5 — Fallo o hecho a posta

*2023-08-28, version 2.2.5*

No funciona el sonido si reproduces YouTube y lo mantienes abierto antes si se podía

### 1/5 — Easy
