### 5/5 — Great business model

*2026-07-31, version 2.6*

Awesome you just pay for what you want it does the basics but if you want dark, you get paid for that that’s good and each one of the payments is really just $.50. That’s it. I love it. Good work great business model.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-05-30, version 2.6*

Very simple interface, been using it for years. Works great every time. Overcomplication with other apps ruins it

### 3/5 — OK but…

*2025-02-26, version 2.6*

Good app, simple to use, not needlessly complex.  Setting that keeps phone awake during use does NOT work

### 3/5 — Few issues to fix

*2025-02-06, version 2.6*

Anti sleep mode won’t stay on

### 5/5 — Purchase available?

*2025-01-22, version 2.6*

I love the app, I would like to turn on dark mode as I use it at night and my phone is quite bright but I can’t seem to be able to purchase the add on? Is that feature still available? Thanks!

### 5/5 — Elegantly simple

*2024-11-26, version 2.6*

This app does just what it says - it times and counts reps. The interface is easy to use. It times forward and backward and counts reps up or down. Resetting is straightforward. There is an audible alert when the timer goes down to zero. It is designed for an iPhone rather than an iPad but works on an iPad. It only seems to run in full-screen mode.

### 1/5 — Eh

*2023-02-27, version 2.6*

None of the buttons on the settings page work besides “Rate the app,” so here I am.

### 5/5 — Perfect for beginners

*2023-01-03, version 2.6*

Use this to count my rest time and keep tracks of my reps.
Love this little app!

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2022-07-13, version 2.6*

This app is a game changer!  Especially when working out alone.  It’s a huge help!

### 4/5 — Good but could use another feature

*2022-03-18, version 2.6*

This is pretty good and easy to use but it would be better if you could count the set at the start of the countdown, rather than at the end.
