User reviews

Pointless

The timer only counts down when the phone is unlocked and the app is up, which makes it useless for things like runs and workouts. Wish I knew that before buying it.

Buyer Beware!

The features that make this app really useful are only available in the “Pro” or “Enhanced” version. The app description does not mention this and in-app purchases are not identified. You only find out about the purchase AFTER you download the free version. There is no way to know what the upgrade costs unless you tap the upgrade button. It costs $1.99. There is no obvious way to cancel and go back to the app without purchasing the upgrade. So I was forced to purchase the upgrade. Not happy.

I should have looked at the reviews - only 5 and all made on the same day. This suggests a less than honorable intention in marketing.

The “Enhanced” version has UI deficiencies so I will call this a $2 learning experience and move on to another app.

Update
Thanks for the quick response (earns another star in my book). I will keep the app and continue my learning experience with it. I will update this review as I gain more experience using it.

Response from developer

I’m sorry you felt pressured into buying the app. You are free to request a refund through Apple. It was never my intention to make the purchase forced and a lot of functionality is available for free, please accept that as a solo app developer I have to try to make ends meet also. Simon Update: I hope your next experiences are better, please let me know if you have any other suggestions. Simon

All purpose timer

Works well for the exercises I do, really like the way heart rate appears over the intervals.

I’ve got a lot of different routines so it’s nice to be able to save them to repeat later.

Numbers are really clear when my phones on the floor or far away

Really like the way the intervals animate when I’m setting up the timer, fun to just play with the sliders!
