Tempo is a workout timer for Tabata, EMOM, AMRAP, For Time and BPM training. β€’ Six formats β€” TABATA, EMOM, AMRAP, FOR TIME, a builder for your own intervals, and a BPM count. β€’ Big-number screen β€” the screen changes colour for every phase and drains from the top as time runs out, so you can read it from across the room. β€’ Build your own β€” stack work and rest steps into rounds and blocks, save them under My workouts and start with one tap. β€’ Sound cues β€” phase changes and countdowns are announced, with a male or female voice and an adjustable cue volume. β€’ BPM β€” set a tempo and a target count; Tempo clicks on every beat and calls out the count. β€’ History β€” finished workouts are kept on this device; open them from the History button on Home and start one again with a tap. β€’ Share result β€” turn a result into an image card for Instagram Stories or your messenger. β€’ Personal records β€” personal bests, day streaks and "Done N times" show on the summary and the card. β€’ Today's World Challenge β€” every day the whole world does the same bodyweight workout. See how many are doing it with you and your anonymous world rank (flag and score). No account or name. β€’ The screen stays on while a timer is running. Race simulation in the HYROX format: 8 Γ— 1 km runs and 8 stations (ski erg, rower and more) in race order. Tap to move on, undo a mis-tap within 5 seconds, see your division's weights (2026/27 rulebook) and keep every split time on this phone. Tempo is an independent app, not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by HYROX World GmbH. HYROX is a trademark of its owner. Classic benchmark workouts such as Fran, Murph and Cindy, timed with simple taps. Choose Rx or Scaled; records and personal bests stay on this phone. Apple Watch: use your watch as a remote during a race. See the current segment, tap Next on your wrist and, when you finish, save the workout to Apple Health. Heart rate and workout data stay on the watch and in Apple Health; Tempo never receives them. Ads are shown at the bottom of the screen. Free users can save up to 3 workouts in My workouts. Tempo Pro (a one-time purchase, not a subscription) removes the ads and the limit, and adds race analysis of your own saved races.
