### 5/5 — Sehr guter Timer

*2026-05-25*

Die Einstellmöglichkeiten sind sehr gut, Dauer des Workouts und der Pausen sowie Anzahl der Wiederholungen sind frei einstellbar. Ich fände einen (einstellbaren) optischen und akustischen Kountdown, der das Ende eines Sets ankündigt, gut. Dann hält man vielleicht die letzten zehn Sekunden auch noch durch.

### 5/5 — Spitze

*2026-04-02*

Erfüllt genau Zweck
Lockscreen Widget wäre toll, kommt bestimmt

### 5/5 — Ein sehr guter Timer

*2026-03-26*

Wirklich zu empfehlen. Man kann hier einstellen, wie viel Sekunden man eine Übung machen kann dazwischen sogar die Zeit, die man als kurze Pause nutzen kann, um dann direkt mit der nächsten Übung weiterzumachen und das auch noch kostenlos top was ich mir noch wünschen würde, wären andere Töne. Manche davon sind kaum zu hören aber ansonsten nur zu empfehlen die App

### 1/5 — Stops at lock screen

*2026-03-24*

Maybe a useful app but it stops the timer when thd iphone and also the watch goes in lock screen - not very useful
