Repko is the hands-free tempo timer for strength lifters. Say GO β it counts every rep out loud in full 4-phase tempo (eccentric, pause, concentric, pause), while your hands never leave the bar. Three things, done right together: full 4-phase per-rep timing, real voice control (say GO, STOP, REPEAT β actual commands, not just cues), and 100% on-device speech that works offline. New in 1.1: voice control no longer interrupts your music, a STOP command that keeps your rep count honest, iCloud backup, and an Apple Watch app that taps every tempo phase on your wrist. WHAT MAKES REPKO DIFFERENT β’ Full 4-phase tempo β not 2 or 3. Eccentric, bottom pause, concentric, top pause, exactly as written: 3-1-2-0, or X for explosive. β’ Real hands-free control. Say GO to start, STOP to pause, REPEAT to redo a rep. Gloves, chalk, sweat β it doesn't matter. β’ 100% on-device speech. Your voice never leaves your phone. Works with zero signal in a basement gym. β’ Speaks over your music without muting it. Beeps, cues, and countdowns mix in β your playlist keeps playing at full volume. β’ Time under tension, tracked automatically. Every second of every phase, logged for you.

Is your workout a recordβ¦ or true immersion? Tempo Beat strips away unnecessary notifications and complicated features so you can focus entirely on your sets, breathing, and intensity. A premium workout counter designed for serious training. β Still getting distracted during workouts? You finish a set, open social media βjust for a second,β and suddenly your momentum is gone. Short-form videos, notifications, random distractions β they break your flow and cool your body down. The moment your focus disappears, your workout stops being growth and becomes wasted time. β Forgetting reps and compromising on sets? βWas that 8 repsβ¦ or 9?β The moment you lose count, your brain naturally chooses the easier option. Those final painful reps β the ones that truly stimulate growth β are often skipped without realizing it. A broken tempo leads to inconsistent intensity, poor muscle stimulation, and eventually, plateaus. β Perfect rhythm. Unshakable intensity. Tempo Beat eliminates unnecessary digital noise and acts as your dedicated workout spotter β mechanically tracking your reps and sets so you can stay fully locked in. β’ Consistent Tempo Control Maintain a steady rhythm and maximize time under tension (TUT) for better muscle engagement. β’ Forced Honesty No more losing count. The displayed reps and sets keep you accountable until the goal is complete. β’ Dopamine Optimization Escape smartphone addiction during training and focus on the real dopamine: muscle pumps, progress, and achievement. β’ Complete Privacy No signup or login required. All workout data stays safely stored on your device β never on a server. β This app is not for everyone. Tempo Beat was built for people who train to become stronger than yesterday β not to impress others online.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Repko at none against TempoBeat's shown. Repko also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). TempoBeat's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
