PaceFlip gives you complete confidence in your timing so you can just run. Key Features: • Preset Workout Templates & Custom Routines: Jump straight into popular interval routines like Couch to 5K, HIIT Sprint 30/30, and Tabata 20/10, or easily build, save, and sync your own custom workout presets. • iPhone & Apple Watch Companion Experience: Use PaceFlip on whichever device suits your workout best! Configure and run workouts standalone on your Apple Watch, track on your iPhone, or sync seamlessly between both with one tap. • Active Workout Cards (Telemetry Graphs, Baseline Compare & Next Flip): Customize your top dashboard widget during active workouts to view live metrics that matter most to you: • Live Telemetry Graphs: Visually monitor your live heart rate (BPM) and real-time workout intensity trends. • Workout Baseline Comparisons: Compare your current run’s distance and elapsed duration directly against your last completed workout. • Next Flip Preview & Milestones: See exact countdowns to your upcoming phase transition (e.g., "NEXT: WALK in 00:30") along with trainer milestone cues. • Virtual Trainer, Voice Encouragements & Milestones: Enjoy intelligent audio guidance that ducks background music (Spotify, Apple Music, podcasts): • Phase Cues: Clear voice prompts ("Run!", "Walk!", "Warm Up", "Cool Down"). • Pre-Transition Countdowns: Hear your trainer count you in ("3, 2, 1...") before every pace flip. • Milestone Alerts: Audio callouts for halfway through your workout, halfway through an interval, 1 minute remaining, and final cycle! • Motivational Encouragements: Non-repeating motivational callouts at key workout milestones to keep you energized. • Live Distance & Workout History Logs: Track live distance in Miles or Kilometers.

Distinct haptic vibrations prompt you exactly when it's time to switch between running and walking. • Customizable Stepper Precision: Adjust interval durations in flexible 15-second, 30-second, or 1-minute steps on both devices. • Clean, Unified Health Data: PaceFlip logs your interval workout as one continuous, elegant session in Apple Health & Fitness—preserving your overall pace metrics without cluttering your history with hundreds of micro-segments. • Marathon-Ready Reliability: Engineered for the long haul.
