A simple and beautiful interval timer. 1. Drag to set your custom intervals for workout, rest, rounds, etc 2. Tap to start. Interval Timer doesn't interfere with your music or other apps: ∙ Listen to your music apps while you work out. ∙ Voice or beep guides for every workout. ∙ You can leave the app and still listen to the audio guides, in order to follow a workout you found online. And no need to manually record your workouts: ∙ Detailed history and statistics pages to track your progress. ∙ Repeat a previous workout from your history, so you don't need to set it again. If you have any ideas for how to improve the app, just tap "Contact Support" inside the app and let us know! We are always trying to improve Interval Timer. This app offers an optional auto-renewable subscription, Premium Pass (monthly), and a one-time Lifetime Pass. Premium Pass starts with a 1-week free trial for eligible new subscribers, then renews automatically every month at the price shown in the app until you cancel.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Interval Timer □ HIIT Timer holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Interval Timer □ HIIT Timer has 88K ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 61% of Interval Timer □ HIIT Timer's written reviews are positive against 92% of BS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Interval Timer □ HIIT Timer ships an update every 5 weeks, BS every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
