Swim Set Interval Timer is an easy‑to‑use swim interval timer for swimmers, coaches, triathletes and teams who run structured repeat sets. Designed for reliability and clarity, it combines iPhone‑based timing with an Apple Watch companion app for quick access and at‑a‑glance progress. Build repeatable swim sets, track intervals accurately, and focus on training—not managing a stopwatch or losing track of set count.

Customizable timing modes -Choose how your intervals display and behave: -Count up or down -Optional goal hold time indicators -Available countdown blinking and/or audible beeps -Color customization to match your preferences or improve visibility on deck Phone‑first, reliable timing -The iPhone acts as the primary timer to ensure consistent and accurate set tracking. Apple Watch companion app -View live interval progress, start sets remotely, and stay in sync with your phone during workouts. Automatic resync -If the Watch display sleeps, it reconnects and updates instantly when you raise your wrist. Sharable set log -Automatically log completed sets and share your workout results with teammates, coaches, or training partners. Simple, focused design -No clutter — just the timing information swimmers and coaches actually need. Who It’s For: -Competitive swimmers running structured sets -Coaches providing interval-based practices from the pool deck -Athletes who want a clear, repeatable interval routine -Anyone who prefers simplicity over overloaded workout apps Apple Watch Notes: The Apple Watch app works as a companion to the iPhone app. Timing continues on the phone if the Watch screen goes to sleep, and the Watch display updates automatically when it becomes active again.
