### 3/5 — Great app - no customer support

*2026-09-04, version 4.9.15*

I have been using this app for years. Love the routines. I have contacted customer support twice and not even received a ‘we’ll get back to you soon’ response. Just nothing. The app is not recognising my purchase and I can’t access some of my workouts anymore. I will look for another app.

### 1/5 — Multiple phones

*2026-08-28, version 4.9.15*

Hello, I have two phones and an iPad when I try to download and restore my purchase access to my other devices. It won’t allow me.

### 1/5 — Crys

*2026-08-27, version 4.9.15*

Its not working on my watch and I payed for the premium

### 1/5 — Primo I’m features not working

*2026-08-26, version 4.9.15*

Paying for premium, but the app won’t recognize my subscription. Find another timer.

### 2/5 — Used to be great

*2026-08-26, version 4.9.15*

Not sure what they are doing here but however the app was updated will no longer recognize my premium subscription that auto renews. Really disappointing. The app used to be great. And now I can’t use it.

### 1/5 — Paid for Nothing!!

*2026-08-25, version 4.9.15*

I’ve paid for 12 months Premium, yet the APP will not allow Premium access no matter what I do. Worked for 4 years perfectly fine but now, nothing. Can’t send feedback requesting help via the APP. Can’t send request for help via APP store as undeliverable. What the hell - have they gone under and not communicated anything? It used to be amazing - now I have no idea what’s going on. I rely on this APP for my work, so I’m really angry.

### 1/5 — Don’t purchase

*2026-08-25, version 4.9.15*

I’ve used the free version for years. Then got a watch and upgraded to the premium. Still get prompts to upgrade and it doesn’t work on my watch.  I’ve emailed twice and there is no support.

### 2/5 — No App Support

*2026-08-25, version 4.9.15*

Like a previous review I have been using this app for a number of years, paying for the premium service - it had been great. However I’ve recently have been unable to access the premium features. I have tried restoring and deleting the app but it does not work. I’ve contacted the support email and had no reply. Disappointing will now need to find a more reliable app service.

### 1/5 — Paid for premium, not allowing me to access services.

*2026-08-25, version 4.9.15*

Paid for premium, not allowing me to access services.

The app itself is great. There’s just no tech support.

### 1/5 — Worked until it didn’t

*2026-08-24, version 4.9.15*

I have used this app for a few years. This time it went to auto renew and after the renewal was processed, I lost access to my premium timers. I attempted to restore from their subscription screen: unsuccessful.  I attempted to repurchase thinking that was the issue, Apple confirmed I was charged on August 17th and I have a subscription through 2027. I have now emailed customer service twice, no response. I uninstalled and re-installed, no luck.  Will likely be requesting refund and finding another timer. Too bad, this one worked great for years.

### 1/5 — Two Accounts with no Assistance

*2026-08-22, version 4.9.15*

I’ve used this time for years with no issue. Until recently. I switched iPads, my subscription moved over, no issue. I was testing the music function of the app and for some reason the app decided to remove my premium account and was downgraded to the basic option. I tried to restore and it said that I had to do this under the name of the subscription. I checked all items and tied again. No luck. So, as a temp fix because I was about to workout, I subscribed to a trial membership. When I did this, everything went through payment wise, except the premium access. Payment and all processed but I’m still stuck with the basic access. Now I have 2 PAID subscriptions under the same account with no premium access. How? So, I sent an email to the email address the app says, no response. It’s been a week and nada.

### 4/5 — Great sound choices

*2026-08-22, version 4.9.15*

This app has been helpful for my interval training workouts. I appreciate not having to push buttons between each set! I often cover the ads at the bottom of the screen; however, because there are occasionally ads for a pornographic site.

### 1/5 — Deleted my routines

*2026-08-21, version 4.9.15*

A few days ago, I opened the app to teach my workout class. The app prompted me to renew my membership. I did so, and my Apple account says I did so, but when I went into the app the routines were locked under “premium”. I tried again, and the same problem happened. When I tried to renew my membership again, it gave me a “purchase error code” and said I already had the subscription. I deleted and redownloaded the app hoping that would fix it, but the routines deleted and the same error code is happening when I sign up/ restore my account. Another error message that pops up when I click restore says that I must be signed in with the Apple account I used originally. The app itself gives me no “login” option to do so. I have the same iCloud/Apple account that I have had since I downloaded the app. The app has completely deleted my 10 routines that I had made and saved in there for work.

### 1/5 — Unable to purchase premium

*2026-08-21, version 4.9.15*

This app won’t let me purchase premium to keep using the custom timers.

### 1/5 — App no longer works

*2026-08-20, version 4.9.15*

App recently just stopped working and asking for a premium subscription to continue. I already had the premium subscription, but the app doesn’t recognize it. I’ve emailed the company a few times to no response.

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2026-09-04, version 4.9.15*

Not sure what they are doing here but however the app was updated will no longer recognize my premium subscription that auto renews. Really disappointing. The app used to be great. And now I can’t use it.

Even worse. The submit button for feedback doesn’t work. Stuck in an endless loop with no support and an app that I paid for until next June.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-09-02, version 4.9.15*

I never write reviews but all my routines are saved into this and as an instructor of years I’m angry. All my hard work and creativity was saved here and I have no access to it anymore. I am still subscribed to premium and I have no access to it. Such a disappointment. I’ve tried to reach out, don’t even try they will not even respond or even give you a real email to reach them at. Spend your money else where

### 1/5 — Subscription stopped Working

*2026-09-01, version 4.9.15*

I hate to write a bad review, but my subscription stopped connecting and I can not restore it. I don’t see any area on the website to contact support. I would be glad to change the review if someone from support would restore the subscription.

### 1/5 — Premium version

*2026-08-31, version 4.9.15*

I subscribed to the premium version via the Apple Store, but the premium version was never available on my app.

### 1/5 — Very disappointed!

*2026-08-30, version 4.9.15*

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for, yet after I bought the premium version I still cannot access the routines I build. I tried purchasing again and it’s telling me I’ve already got the premium edition. I emailed the vendor and have got nothing back. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Stole my money and refused to restore premium purchase

*2026-08-30, version 4.9.15*

See title. Self explanatory.

### 1/5 — Seeking assistance

*2026-08-30, version 4.9.15*

Love this app but I got a new phone and since then, it didn’t register my old account. I can’t purchase premium again for the year because it says it isn’t the original account and I can’t restore my purchase because it says that email account already has one. There is no where to get in contact with help to solve this issue.

### 1/5 — Paid premium and got scammed

*2026-08-30, version 4.9.15*

I paid premium and it’s not giving me access to any of the premium features that I paid for and on top of that it won’t restore my dozens of personal workouts I made on a phone I lost that I backed up but the app is broken so I can’t use them anymore which sucks, the app is broken.

### 1/5 — Something has change - Feels like a fraud now.

*2026-08-29, version 4.9.15*

Had the app for 3+ years, loved it designed a lot of routines around it. Have bought premium twice now last two months. Cant restore , can’t contact help , no one gets back to you, domain name can’t be found. It’s feels right off, tread carefully ..

### 1/5 — I paid for Premium and can’t get the features

*2026-08-28, version 4.9.15*

I paid for Premium and keeps telling me to upgrade and when I go in it says I paid but I can’t use the software. Glitchy
