Read full description

Interval Clock guides you through interval training with a countdown timer that alerts you when you have to go faster or slower. This is ideal for use on a stationary bike, treadmill, or other piece of exercise equipment that allows you to look at your phone (although you can use the app for just its audio alerts without machinery if you prefer). The app was originally designed for a 20 minute workout with short intervals, as this was found to be an ideal way to train (see this Lifehacker post for details: http://lifehacker.com/5989669). Now the app supports interval lengths and timers of your choosing. It will also remember the last interval you chose so you don't have to change it. If you have any issues or want to report bugs, please let me know and I'll do my best to fix them.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: TRX at 4.6 against Interval Clock's 3.3. TRX also leads on ratings volume (21K vs 4) and review sentiment (48% vs 25%). Interval Clock's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 15) and iOS requirement (5.1.1 vs 16.6). On price there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

TRX holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TRX has 21K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 48% of TRX's written reviews are positive against 25% of Interval Clock's.
