IntervalBeats is a focused interval timer for workouts, HIIT, tabata, stretching, meditation, and anything else that benefits from structured time. Built around Apple Music β pick your intervals, choose a work playlist and a rest playlist, press start. APPLE MUSIC β RECOMMENDED FOR THE FULL EXPERIENCE Apple Music is the smoothest path. Connect once and IntervalBeats plays, pauses, and switches between your work and rest playlists automatically β even while the screen is locked. The Sleep Timer pauses Apple Music precisely at zero whether your phone is locked or not. Requires an Apple Music subscription. WORKS WITH OTHER AUDIO APPS TOO Prefer Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Audible, or YouTube Music? Start playing in your audio app, then launch an IntervalBeats session β your audio mixes with our beep cues. Workout auto-pause and the Sleep Timer also work with these apps; just keep IntervalBeats on screen (we dim it for you) so iOS allows us to send the pause. No Apple Music subscription needed.
