Never lose count of a set or cut a rest short again. TempoReps is a workout and interval timer for strength training, HIIT, gym circuits, and WOD-style sessions: Tempo, EMOM, TABATA, AMRAP, For Time, MIX, Rest, Stopwatch, and Mirror in one focused app. 9 MODES — INCLUDED - TEMPO: Sets x Reps with full tempo control (3-0-X-1 notation). Control eccentric, concentric, and pause phases for strength and muscle work. - EMOM: Every Minute On the Minute with custom intervals and visible round summaries - TABATA: High-intensity interval training with configurable work/rest phases - AMRAP: As Many Rounds As Possible with countdown timer - FOR TIME: Count up with optional time cap and round tracking - MIX: Build custom gym circuits combining work, rest, and any interval type - REST: dedicated rest timer for recovery between sets, attempts, or supersets, with a visible set counter and one-tap reset after each interval - STOPWATCH: Simple stopwatch with centisecond precision - MIRROR: Work at your pace, then let rest mirror your effort with a configurable work-to-rest ratio COMPANION FEATURES INCLUDED - Apple Watch app with all 9 modes on your wrist - Live Activity on Lock Screen and Dynamic Island - Playback audio with a Settings sound check, queued voice countdowns, and custom haptics FREE — AND IT STAYS FREE All nine timers, the Apple Watch app, the Live Activity, the beep, voice and percussion alerts, the haptics: none of it sits behind a purchase. No account, no ads, no session limit, nothing that expires. The free tier also holds 2 saved configurations and MIX circuits of up to 2 blocks, and whatever you already saved keeps running untouched. WHAT TEMPOREPS PRO ADDS Two things, both about your library. Saved configurations go from 2 to 20, so Monday's tempo work, Thursday's EMOM and your warm-up all sit one tap away. And the 2-block cap on MIX disappears, so a whole circuit — work, rest, AMRAP, back to work — fits into a single saved workout. That is the entire difference: no mode is added, none is taken away.

Current prices in your currency are listed in the In-App Purchases section of this page and on the Pro screen inside the app. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends; cancel any time in your Apple Account settings.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Workout Coach Plus at 100% against TempoReps's 67%. Workout Coach Plus also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). TempoReps's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 3.7). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Workout Coach Plus sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and TempoReps sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

TempoReps holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Workout Coach Plus's written reviews are positive against 67% of TempoReps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Workout Coach Plus ships an update every 6 days, TempoReps every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on August 16, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
