### 5/5 — Perfect for runners

*2025-05-21*

I use this app for my interval training at the gym. It was so nice to not have to manually set and trigger a new timer for each interval!
Simple to use and solid app.

### 5/5 — Intuitive

*2025-05-12*

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review. Happy you like the app 🙂

### 5/5 — Does what you want

*2025-04-07, version 2.20.2*

Bought the premium version as it was a single purchase and reasonably priced at $4.99. Always happy to support developers who make great apps and don’t try to snag you in with a subscription. The ads on the free version weren’t annoying either.

The app is simple to use and does exactly what I want. No clutter.

### 1/5 — was perfect, now paywalled

*2025-06-08*

They paywalled the sounds for the intervals of each workout. Instant uninstall

**Developer response:** Hi there,
Just to clarify: from the very beginning, all additional sounds have been part of the premium version. At no point have we reduced the number of free features.
Two days ago, we discovered a bug in the sound engine that caused sounds not playing at all after the app had been inactive for a while. We've released a fix for this issue in version 2.41.1 just a few hours ago.
Please reach out to us at code.nature.info@gmail.com. We have an offer for you, and i.Timer is missing you ;-)

### 2/5 — Ads suck

*2026-05-18*

The ads suck and are too distracting

**Developer response:** Update 06/02/2026:
Please try the latest version, 2.49.0. The ad is still there, but it should be much less distracting 😊
---------
Thank you for your feedback. Well it’s a freemium model, meaning the app uses ads and offers a premium version (without ads). The ad is a small 50pt banner ad, which is the smallest banner format available. Large banner ads are intentionally avoided. But I understand that ads can feel distracting. I’ll look into ways to make the ad more user-friendly in upcoming versions. Have a nice day 😊

### 5/5 — Cool app

*2026-08-04*

Helps me with training, very handy

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review 😊👍 Appreciate it

### 5/5 — Perfect for interval training

*2026-08-04*

Been using i.Timer for my HIIT and Tabata sessions and it’s exactly what I needed. Setting up custom intervals is quick and the EMOM mode is great for structuring rounds. The audio cues keep me on pace so I’m not staring at my phone mid-workout. Clean, no-nonsense design and it just works. Highly recommend for anyone who trains on a timer.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the great review 😊

### 5/5 — Very intuitive and simple to use

*2026-07-23*

Just what i need to manage my workout. Simple and very customizable. I switch my workout often so love the ability to save different timers

**Developer response:** Happy you like the app 😊 Thanks for your review

Simple. Works great for hiit. Free.

**Developer response:** Hey 🙂 Thanks for your feedback. We’re glad you’re enjoying the app. Have fun! ☺️

### 5/5 — Easy to use, free, lets me rename and sort my timers for organizing and planning. Easy to edit.

*2026-02-16*

O

**Developer response:** Great review 🙂 thank you very much and have fun! 😊

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2025-10-05*

I like it a lot, it’s easy and effective. I suggest adding feature to start timer from iWatch

**Developer response:** Hey 🙂 thanks for your great feedback and the suggestion. An iWatch integration makes sense and it is a lot of work/tests etc. But who knows 😉

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2025-08-17*

Just got into adding HIIT into my running training and this is so helpful. Needed something I could use by itself and also when adding strides on my weekly runs without interrupting my other activity. Works great!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your great review 🙂

### 5/5 — Sometimes you just need simple and easy to use

*2025-07-31*

I have been trying to get back in shape and saw other HIIT trackers had tons of features I did care for cluttering the screen which kind of overwhelmed me. This app is just what I needed to get started, highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Love your feedback 😊 thank you
