PaceCue is a structured interval timer built for runners. Create custom workouts, press start, and get voice and haptic cues that tell you exactly when to speed up, slow down, warm up, and cool down -- so you can leave your phone in your pocket and focus on the run. Build any workout in seconds Stack intervals with custom durations, repeat counts, effort levels, and target paces. Choose from 11 built-in presets like Tempo Run, Fartlek, Pyramid, Hill Repeats, and 400m Repeats, or design your own from scratch. Drag to reorder your workout library. AI Workout Builder Describe the run you want -- "30-minute tempo with a warmup and strides" -- and PaceCue generates a complete interval workout tailored to your running profile, experience level, and goals. Refine it through conversation, then save and run. Real-time GPS pace Track your pace live during every interval. Set a target pace and PaceCue will announce your current pace at the frequency you choose -- every 15, 30, or 60 seconds. After the run, review per-interval splits with pace-versus-target comparisons. Audio cues that stay out of your way Pick from voice announcements, beeps, or both. Choose your preferred voice from every option on your device, including premium enhanced voices. Enable music ducking so your cues cut through Spotify without killing the vibe. Set countdown warnings at 3, 5, 10, 15, or 30 seconds before each transition.
