Fair Interval Timer

Fair Interval Timer is a clean, fast, beautiful interval timer for HIIT, Tabata, circuits, boxing rounds, and EMOM — without the nonsense. No subscriptions. Just intervals. Most interval timers are bloated, ugly, or locked behind a monthly paywall. This one is honest and simple: configure your workout and start training in seconds. WHAT MAKES IT FAIR • No subscriptions — ever. • Your first workout is free. • After that, free users watch ONE short ad before a workout — never during. • Remove ads forever with a single €4.99 purchase. • No account, no sign-up. Your data stays on your device. BUILT FOR TRAINING • Big, high-contrast timer you can read across the room. • Clear WORK / REST / ROUND REST phases, each with its own color. • A 10-second GET READY lead-in so you're never caught off guard. • "Next up" shows what's coming and how long it lasts. • Sound cues: countdown ticks, end-of-round bell, and a finish chime. • Optional warm-up and cooldown, and a vibration option. • Keeps the screen awake during your workout. FAST SETUP • Quick-start templates: HIIT 40/20, Tabata 20/10, Strength Circuit 45/15. • Build your own: work, rest, exercises per round, rounds, round rest. • Save presets and repeat past workouts in one tap. • Local workout history. Simple, sporty, premium. No subscriptions. Just intervals.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Meditation Timer + Log at none against Fair Interval Timer's shown. Fair Interval Timer's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
