Interval Walking - Splits provides the cleanest, distraction-free interval coaching experience on iOS. Designed specifically for the Japanese interval walking method (alternating fast and moderate walking paces), our app keeps you focused on your stride with clear audio cues, precise split metrics, and zero intrusive ads. WHY INTERVAL WALKING? Studies show that alternating between 3 minutes of brisk walking and 3 minutes of moderate walking yields superior fitness and blood pressure improvements compared to continuous steady walking. KEY FEATURES - Clear Audio Coaching: Gentle audio chimes and voice alerts prompt you when to accelerate and when to recover without interrupting your podcasts or music. - Seamless Apple Watch Integration: Glance at your current interval pace, heart rate, and elapsed split time right on your wrist. - Custom Interval Programs: Set custom walk/rest durations, split targets, and warm-up/cool-down periods in seconds. - Offline & Private: No mandatory account creation, no tracking, and no cloud requirement. Your workout data stays on your device and syncs securely via Apple Health. - Battery-Efficient Background Tracking: Track outdoor walks with low-power GPS and indoor treadmill sessions with step cadence. - Full Apple Health & Fitness Integration: Automatically writes workouts, active calories, and heart rate data to Apple Health. NO SUBSCRIPTION TRAPS Unlike bloated fitness apps with confusing paywalls and full-screen mid-workout ads, Interval Walking - Splits gives you a reliable, ad-free training companion built for daily consistency. Start your fast-and-slow interval walking routine today and experience the difference in every step!
