mWOD Timer is the clean, fast, no-BS WOD timer for functional fitness. No ads. No account. No setup — pick a mode and go. Training alone? Prop the phone up, go full screen, and read your time from the other end of the gym. Your own clock, not the one on the wall. Brutal AMRAP? Grinding EMOM? Chasing a PR? The cues fire on the second, every second, so you can stay locked in instead of glued to your phone. TRAINS THE WAY YOU TRAIN • AMRAP — as many rounds as possible • EMOM — every minute on the minute • For Time — race the clock • For Time with Rest — work hard, rest on a timer • Tabata — the classic 20/10, with the option to finish on work instead of rest BUILT FOR REAL SESSIONS • Full-screen landscape turns a phone or tablet into a wall clock — for you training alone, or for a whole class. • Log rounds with one tap. The count stays on screen, and a sweaty double-tap still counts as one. • Plays over your music instead of stopping it. • Big, high-contrast digits, readable from across the box — with sweaty eyes and sweaty hands. • Keeps running when you lock the phone or switch apps. The cues keep firing. • Round splits after AMRAP, For Time and For Time with Rest, so you can see which round fell apart. SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE Voice cues in English, Spanish and Catalan — recorded by a human, not read by a robot. Set it once in Settings. NO ADS. EVER. No banners mid-workout. No account to create. Nothing between you and the clock. Pick a mode. Hit start. Go.
