### 2/5 — Une mise à jour qui ruine six ans d’utilisation

*2026-05-12*

La dernière mise à jour de l’application, bloque son usage à un certain nombre de timer qu’on lance par jour. C’est vraiment dommage parce que ça fait plus de six ans que j’utilise cette application. Malgré tous les bugs existant sur lequel je m’en suis totalement accoutumer… Je vais donc supprimer cette application et essayer de trouver quelque chose qui me correspond de nouveau.

### 4/5 — Peu de fonctionnalités

*2026-04-28*

Vous devriez faire plusieurs voix et ajouter la possibilité d’ajouter des sons quand un cycle se termine au lieu d’une vibration ou d’une voix qui fais un décompte.
Vraiment peu de possibilités même si c’est une bonne application pour faire de la musculation poids de corps.

### 3/5 — Premium Yearly not so premium.

*2026-01-18*

Work/Rest options not accurate.  Under Settings can only see Subscriptions options - it would be great to have louder and stronger notifications (vibration) when using app and listening to music app.

### 3/5 — Bom, mas tem o que melhorar

*2025-10-23*

Falta o periodo de preparação antes de começar e o descanso ao final

### 4/5 — Working Well but need moré feature

*2025-07-20*

It would be Nice to be able to add a break between 2 sessions. Also naming exercice would be Even better. Exercice 1 : name / mn of working / minutes of break … exercice 5 …

### 2/5 — App ist nicht flexibel genug

*2024-12-13*

Fürs Pferd nicht geeignet

### 4/5 — Just what I was looking for!

*2024-10-28*

I think the only improvement I could suggest would be to add a work:rest ratio. For example select a 1:4 ratio, set a working time (15sec) and it automatically outputs the rest time (60sec = 15x4)

### 3/5 — Watch App funktioniert nicht :-(

*2024-08-18*

Leider läuft die Zeit des Timers bei der Watch App nur, wenn die App im Vordergrund aktiv ist. Sobald man das Handgelenk wegdreht bzw. die Watch abdunkelt, bleibt der Timer stehen. Er läuft erst weiter, wenn man auf die Watch tippt, das Handgelenk dreht oder die App wieder aktiv in den Vordergrund bringt. 
Schade eigentlich, die Watch App wäre so nützlich gewesen, so ist sie leider ziemlich sinnlos.

### 4/5 — Louder in app

*2024-07-11*

When using Bluetooth to stream music, I can’t hear count downs to work and rest. Wish I could make it louder in app. Also would be great to have a precount down before work starts the first time.

### 5/5 — Interval Timer

*2024-07-11*

I enjoy using it, I will recommend it to anyone who wants a good exercise timer.

### 5/5 — O melhor

*2024-07-10*

Simples e fundamental. Valeu pagar para ficar sem anúncios 😍

### 3/5 — Doesn’t persist in background for very long.

*2024-07-10*

Don’t expect to do other things on your phone while the timer is running.

### 1/5 — No benefit to the paid version

*2026-01-11*

I paid for the lifetime version and there are no additional benefits to the app than I had before. I have since been told that it doesn’t work properly on iPhone. Very disappointed and a waist of money

### 1/5 — Not sure of what is wrong - the app or me?

*2026-01-05*

I can only change the interval times for one round. The timer says done and I cannot get to round 2. Help! I'm not sure what I am doing incorrectly. It's frustrating. I paid for the subscription also.

### 1/5 — Pas fiable

*2025-03-24*

J’ai la version gratuite de l’app, mais n’est pas fiable juste pour la base qu’on lui demande.

Je lance mon fractionné, je range mon téléphone et n’ayant pas de retour sonore, je jette un œil, le suivi c’est réinitialisé.

Alors les 2 premières fois que ça m’est arrivé, je me suis dit que ça venait de moi, mais non, le problème persiste même en y faisant attention.

Si c’est volontaire sur la version gratuite, ça ne donne pas envie de passer à la payante.

### 1/5 — Não gostei

*2025-01-27*

Não apita

### 1/5 — Lousy - app dies in foreground

*2024-12-12*

App dies when you Lock Screen or switch to another app. Highly not recommend

### 1/5 — Achtung ‼️

*2024-08-09*

Es gehen keine verschiedenen Zeiten für 5,99€ Betrug!

### 1/5 — Free, but not really!

*2024-07-10*

Advertised as free through AppAdvice.  I followed the instructions and was instantly charged 12.87 without being told there was a charge or how much it would be!  TOTALLY UNCOOL!  Definitely not interested in bait and switch app.

### 1/5 — Horrible app, no support

*2024-07-10*

no obvious way to email the developers so I will just leave a bad review:

Nothing fits on the screen. Somethings are off the edge of the screen and unreachable; just sitting on top of each other in a jumble.

### 1/5 — Does not work in background

*2024-03-06*

So is useless as it does not run in background just stops.  Can’t listen to music during run and have operate simultaneously!

**Developer response:** The app should work with music and in the background! Did you approve "Refresh in background"? Please reach out to me on sjansen5@hotmail.com if you still have issues!

### 1/5 — Stops

*2023-09-25*

If you leave the app

### 5/5 — Wonderfully simple yet powerful timer app

*2026-06-20*

Love the additional features added to this app recently. It’s my go to for everything I need. Thank you for keeping things simple and easy to use yet expanding its flexibility through various options and features. Great job!

### 5/5 — Bien au début

*2025-12-29*

Moins bien à l’usage : on ne peut pas mémoriser une session , il faut tout reprogrammer à chaque séance. Le programme s’arrête quand le tel passe en mode veille, pendant la session. La aussi on repart à zéro et on perd le fil de la séance d’entraînement : l’app fait vraiment le minimum

### 5/5 — Application jolie et efficace

*2025-12-09*

Pour mes entraînements, je n’ai pas trouvé mieux comme compteur sportif. Félicitations au développeur !

### 5/5 — Simple but perfect

*2025-11-21*

No flashy but does what it needs to do for interval training

### 5/5 — 提言

*2025-09-26*

①ワークが早く終わった場合に速やかに休憩に移行するために「スキップ機能」が必要
②始める前のカウントダウン秒数が3秒だが10秒に設定したい、なぜならベンチに寝そべって正確にポジショニングするのに3秒以上かかるからだ。
③いくつかのプリセットを作りたい、スワイプで別のプリセットに移動できたら便利だ

### 5/5 — Love it.

*2025-01-09, version 1.32*

So long as the basics stay free, ads are tolerable

### 5/5 — Thank you!

*2024-10-12, version 1.32*

I bought and love the app. Thank you. ❤️ It’s totally helped with getting fit again. One request, can you make an update where I can close the app and the timer keeps going? During my walk/run splits sometimes it accidentally closes and the clock resets. 😄

### 5/5 — Nice. Does a great job!

*2024-07-19*

Doesn’t interrupt workout even though there are ads

### 5/5 — Pratique et simple

*2024-07-14*

Simple d’utilisation

### 5/5 — Love This App Wish It Had Vibrations

*2024-07-12*

As the title says . Will definitely be using but would love a vibration capability and also maybe even to see the countdown on my main screen. But i don’t know what it takes to make an apps no I am pleased either way!

Updated: THEY ADDED VIBRATIONS 5 STARS!!!

**Developer response:** Guess what, we added vibrations! Thanks for your feedback, this help us to improve the app!
