Most stopwatches start the instant you tap โ€” but by the time you've set the phone down, walked to the bar, and gripped, your time is already wrong. Stepwave fixes that. Build your prep as a sequence of pre-countdown steps. Stepwave counts you through them with voice, sound, and haptics, then starts the real stopwatch automatically โ€” so you measure the hold, not the fumble. HOW IT WORKS โ€ข Add as many pre-countdown steps as you need (e.g. Put phone down 5s, Walk to bar 7s, Grip 3s) โ€ข Stepwave cues each step hands-free โ€ข The measured stopwatch starts at exactly the right moment BUILT FOR TRAINING โ€ข Pre-countdown steps โ€” unlimited named prep steps before timing begins โ€ข Voice & sound cues โ€” spoken prompts, countdown beeps, and haptics you can hear across the room โ€ข Urgency & targets โ€” set a target time and get escalating cues as you close in on it โ€ข Sets & rest โ€” chain multiple sets with rest intervals for circuits and intervals โ€ข Apple Watch & widgets โ€” start a hold from your wrist; follow live progress with Live Activities โ€ข History & trends โ€” every session is logged so you can track splits and personal bests PERFECT FOR Dead hangs, planks, wall sits, grip and hangboard work, breath holds, stretching, mobility, and intervals โ€” anything where a clean, repeatable start matters. FREE & PRO Stepwave is free with up to 3 presets, plus full cues, targets, urgency, sets, and recent history.
