Simple Boxing Timer is a fast, no-friction round/rest interval timer built for boxing, kickboxing, MMA, and any circuit-style training that runs on rounds. No nested menus, no setup screens - adjust your rounds, round length, break length, and warning time right on the main screen, then start with one tap. Skip breaks entirely for back-to-back rounds, or dial in your rest exactly how you like it. Running workouts and every setting - sounds, voice announcements, themes - is completely free, with no ads. You can save up to 3 presets for free; an optional $0.99/year Premium subscription unlocks unlimited saved presets plus Past Workouts, your full history of completed sessions.

Interval Timer HIIT Workout's advantage is ratings volume (344 vs 1) and iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.5). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
