## What is Ringside?

Ringside is a round timer you can read from across the gym.

Set your rounds, work and rest, press start, and the whole screen becomes the timer. Red for work, blue for rest. The colour drains down the screen as each round runs out, so one glance from the bag, the rope or the treadmill tells you where you are. The screen stays on for the whole session.

BUILT FOR THE GYM
• Rounds, work time, rest time and a get-ready countdown, from a quick 30 seconds to two-hour sessions
• Huge numbers and full-screen colour you can read from metres away
• A real boxing bell: once to start a round, twice for rest, three times at the end
• Keeps going with the phone locked, with the countdown on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island
• Sounds play over your music, and still play with the silent switch on

EVERY ALERT, YOUR WAY
Each timer has its own sounds:
• Before start: count yourself in with beats or voice
• Minutes left: hear "4 minutes left", or four beats (a long beat means five minutes)
• Final countdown: the last 3, 5 or 10 seconds of every round and rest, as beats or spoken
• Eight sounds to choose from: beep, pip, wood block, click, small bell, buzzer, whistle and boxing bell

IN CONTROL, MID-WORKOUT
• Drag the colour down to speed a round up, or push it to the top to start the round again
• Drag along the round strip to jump anywhere in the workout
• Pause, skip or restart the current part with big, glove-friendly buttons
• Edit the timer without stopping: you keep your place when you save

GLOVES ON? ASK SIRI
• "Siri, start Heavy bag in Ringside" starts any saved timer
• "Siri, start intervals in Ringside" and Siri asks for rounds, round length and rest

MADE FOR
Boxing and bag work, skipping, shadow boxing, HIIT and Tabata, circuits, EMOMs, treadmill and bike intervals, and anything else that runs in rounds.

NO ADS. NO ACCOUNT. JUST ROUNDS.
Pay once and it's yours. No adverts, no sign-up, no subscription and no tracking. Your timers are saved on your phone and nothing is ever sent anywhere.
