Mariabs · Interval Timer vs Taba

Mari is a sharp, minimal interval timer for anyone who trains in rounds — tabata, HIIT, EMOM, circuits, or your own custom intervals. Set your prepare, work, rest, cycles, blocks, and block-rest durations in seconds. Press the white play button. Mari counts you in, calls out each phase, and chimes the final 3-2-1 of every interval so you can keep your eyes on what you're doing instead of on the screen. WHAT YOU GET • Six adjustable parameters: prepare, work, rest, cycles per block, number of blocks, and rest between blocks • Voice cues for every transition: "Prepare", "Work", "Rest", and "Block complete — get ready for the next" • Distinct musical chimes per phase, generated on-device, synced with light haptics • 3-2-1 countdown ticks before each phase change • Big, monochrome timer dial with a subtle progress ring tinted to the current phase • Cycle and block progress shown at all times so you always know where you are • Plays over your music — Spotify, Apple Music, podcasts — and ducks them only when Mari speaks • Stays awake automatically while a workout is running • Settings remembered between launches DESIGNED TO STAY OUT OF THE WAY The screen is dark, glanceable from across a gym, and built around one button. There are no menus, no levels, no streaks, no badges, no analytics. You configure once, then press play. PRIVACY Mari collects nothing. No account. No email. No analytics. No tracking. Your settings stay on your device. The privacy policy is one page; you can read it before you tap install. NO ADS Mari has no ads, no in-app purchases, and no premium tier. No account required.

Taba is a workout timer that keeps things simple. Pick a workout, press start, and focus on moving – Taba tells you when to work, when to rest, and how many rounds are left. FIVE WAYS TO TRAIN HIIT for work and rest intervals, EMOM for a new round every minute, AMRAP for as many rounds as you can fit in, Free Time when you just want a clock running, and Circuit when you want to build your own list of exercises, by reps or by time. A COACH IN YOUR EAR Taba calls out each round, the last round, rest breaks and the halfway point, so you don't have to keep looking at the screen. Choose the voice you like best.
