All you need is - a pair of running shoes - a flat 20 meter running pitch - a modicum of enthusiasm - this app Note: this is NOT a GPS-enabled app; rather, it's a timer app that let's you easily conduct the beep test. No ads, no tracking, no special permissions. It - prompts you with beeps - displays shuttle and level visual cues - displays distance covered and time elapsed - allows for a 15m or 20m lap - offers an auto stop feature When you are done, the app will estimate your vo2Max ... that will - give you bragging rights (hopefully) - allow you to compare your fitness to that of the general population - allow you to chart your progress Caution : Some side effects have been noticed - Runner's high. You will find yourself smiling far too much - Fitter. Regularly done, you will be able to 'run up those stairs' - Leaner. Darn, gotta buy smaller jeans!

Tempo Timer A focused interval timer for athletes who measure effort in rounds, not minutes. Whether you're running intervals, lifting in EMOM blocks, or grinding through HIIT circuits, Tempo Timer keeps your eyes on the work — not the clock. Set up the cycle once, save it as a preset, and dive straight into your next session. Built for sweat sessions Tempo Timer is stripped down to what matters mid-set: time remaining, the current interval, and what comes next. No ads. No popups. No accounts. Open the app, hit start, get to work. What's inside • Custom intervals — dial in work, rest, and rounds • Presets — save your favourite cycles and start with one tap • Session history — review what you trained, when, and for how long • Distraction-free active view — readable from across the room, sweaty and out of breath • Visual cues — colour and motion mark every transition so you don't have to stare at the screen • Changelog — see what's new with every update Who it's for • Runners doing track intervals or fartlek work • Lifters following EMOM, AMRAP, or tempo-prescribed programs • HIIT, Tabata, and circuit-training enthusiasts • Boxers, climbers, and anyone who works in rounds • Anyone tired of timer apps that feel like spreadsheets Designed in detail Every screen is hand-tuned for mid-workout use — large numbers, high-contrast typography, tactile feedback on every action. No clutter, no learning curve, no settings to wade through. Privacy first Your sessions stay on your device. Tempo Timer doesn't track you, doesn't collect analytics, and doesn't need an account. Time your tempo. Train hard.
