Interval Timer Pro App Reviews

Very straightforward functional app. Doesn’t harass the user.

I use this app for a lot of my training, and it works really great.

Bueno

Love the flexibility of the app. I have timer menus set for my HIIT workout, stretching, cold bath and more.

I paid for this version hoping it would do what the free one used to do, which is ring for the time even when the app is in the background. Also it crashes and closes off the timer if left running in the background for too long. So why did I pay when the same issues as the free one is there?

This was the second timer app I used and it blew the first free one away. The only thing that is a little inconvenience is that the music playing turns off shuffle but either way I don’t really notice until I start reading the the titles or have a repeat of a song.

Works well

The timer stops working if you leave the app even if you “lock” the timer. Makes it annoying to use. Constantly have to restart timer if check phone texts or look something up during a workout. Wait until fixed...

No music! Music button does not work. I want my money back.

Used to be great, now shutsdown or won’t work when in the background. So if your screen is locked or you’re listening to music while working (aka most everyone) then it does not work. Used to work perfectly. Really dumb guys!

I would love to be able to use and control my timers from my watch! Other than that I like the product. Seeing as it’s the pro version being able to select/skip/start/stop my timers from my wrist instead of being reliant the phone would make it a better sell than just ad free. 😎

Works great!

It works fine. I use it for my Tabata workout. I would like a little more user friendly menu for designating the rest times between sets and eliminating the intense setting. I manage, but more flexibility would be appreciated.

Love the features. Use it everyday.

This helps me to do everything from eating, to meditation A simple alert to help me remember It also helps me to train for my physical needs

I submitted a bug report about the free version and paid versions not being compatible. Nothing has apparently been done about it yet. I would still recommend using the free version, because that’s what I am forced to do at the moment. Considering, I created a number of workout routines, before deciding to purchase the full version, and there is no way to transfer them over. Update... sent this a couple months ago, and still nothing to help with this problem.

I have over 35 customize workouts I can use this for anything

It will make your workout easier.

Timer worked great forever. Now if you exit to check another app or play different song the timer closes in background and you have to reset. Essentially worthless for me now.

I bought this app and I thought I will have a login and all that to safe all my workouts and I don’t.

Used the app to increase speed. Worked great

If The device screen is not on the music screen the current song will keep resetting. So while working out the choice is have the timer visible with one song repeating or not see the timer and have songs switch.

See title

Works well & easy to format!

Only think is notification configs would be nice. I want it to notify me of the timer stuff but not tell me to work out randomly

Does what it says

I have been using the free version of this app for years and upgraded to the paid when their ads got annoying. This is a great app and well worth the price.

I have been trying to use this app more often. It’s really good, just have to tweak it a bit when I have to “copy and paste” a workout within the routine

I love it! This app is my friend!

Great stuff

Need more sounds!!! :(

This app is fairly easy to use. I can set up an endless variety of circuit programs for my classes and clients.

Love being able to create my own intervals. I use it everyday.

I love the app. But not the screen color! Can't figure out if I can change it.

Great flexibility for interval training.

Works well with Music in the iPhone. Visually it’s great, as you can set down your phone across the room and see when sets and test periods begin and end.

Fantastic app! I’ve used this for years now and provides great flexibility with creating timers for my HIIT and interval workouts!

Works great, easy, versatile 👍

I love this app 👍🏿

Love the features. Use it everyday.

I use the pro for timed exercises and it's great. Highly recommend.

I have used this app for many years for stretch/yoga/Pilates timing and have never had any problems.

I have to time a lot of things on a daily basis. I time my cardiac exercises in intervals. I time a long period of stretches in intervals. I use the timer for many things. I find it easy to operate. I have many different "named" timers set up for various things I need to do. I time stretches that I do every hour to stay limber. I need to slow down my eating so I use the timer to help me. It is very easy to use and I would recommend it to everyone. Update: Every improvement update makes it better

Love this app. I am a marathon runner who trains with the Galloway Run-walk-run method. I used this app to create all the specific intervals I need for workouts and races. It works seamlessly with my music, audible books, and podcasts. Also great to use for yoga and stretching to help with holding poses for the right amount of time. Indispensable for my training!!!!

Great app

Easy, reliable, and customizable. It has helped me take my running to the next level.

I use Interval Timer for my martial art and Yoga practices. I can set up entire flow sequences and concentration periods in fairly elaborate routines. Some ways in which it could be improved would be the ability to enter various portions of a routine without having to start the entire portion over if interrupted. You can pause, but if you just want to back up a set or two, you have to edit or just begin from the top which can be time consuming and inefficient. But overall it's a fairly decent app.

Love this simple app! Use it in the gym for cardio and now that it’s summer to ease myself back into running- I’ve set jog/walk intervals that are moving towards weaning off the walking all together.

Fantastic app I can’t wait for iwatch interface

Great app, the major downside is that your history doesn't transfer when you upgrade to pro, and also can't add them myself through the calendar.

Great app works for me.

Great workout app.

Awesome

I bought this app and it’s great as a timer. A big problem is that iTunes music does not play randomly so every time I look at the timer, the music stops playing in random order and I need to modify that within iTunes. It makes it tough while running. I have OS 11.4

The music stops playing on third party apps once the timer goes off with 5is new update.

I downloaded the pro version thinking that it would give me the rest time function to recover in between sets. Still not possible. I’d like a refund. The seconds interval timer seems like a better bet. More expensive but it works!

This a great app!

I really enjoy this app, when I stick to it lol! Easy to customize - works well for me and makes me feel accomplished.

Updated version is not as responsive as previous version.

This has plenty of very useful workouts. What I really love is the customization. I can make my own program look and sound just the way I want. Thank you!

Easy to set up and use, well designed and flexible, it’s reasonably priced for such a useful app.

This app really needs to give you more options for configuring your workout. For example, you cannot change the order of a routine without re-doing it from scratch.

I LOVE this app. I mostly do jumprope/boxing style cardio and having a good interval timer is key! The only reason I’ve given it 4 instead of 5 stars is because I would REALLY love to be able to use this app on my Apple watch! It really breaks my concentration to have to fish out and unlock my phone whenever I need to pause the session or change my music. Add an Apple watch feature and this will be the best interval app period! Thanks!

I love this app 👍🏿

I wish I had done more research before purchasing the upgrade. There is no difference- was hoping for a countdown feature...or anything. Waste of 3 bucks. Don’t do it!

Efficient, utilitarian, perfect. I didn’t need the pro version, but upgraded because this app developer earned it.

Generally very solid and flexible app. Finally able to play shuffled playlists! I find the simple timing routines are plenty flexible for my needs, but there are more complex possibilities for specialized purposes.

Little difficult setting up, but awesome for interval training.

I used the free version for several years and liked it so much I payed for the full version to say thanks for a great product. Only app I have found like it. Super useful and customizable interval timer and plays music. Perfect!

Easy to use ...love it

I really dig this app. Easy to use-keeps ya on track with your workout and fine tuned very nicely. Must have for those unmotivated days!

Customizable. Easy to use. I have a library for the exercise formats I lead. Please consider adding a sound effect as the timer countdowns from 3-5 seconds. I like to work with the participants and cue the countdown.

Great application for workouts - interval runs, speed timing, cardio intervals- really, really cool!

I use it for TABATA as well.

It allows me to totally customize (length/cycles/ sounds, Etc) any routine I desire! Intuitively designed as well as able to play music

I LOVE this app! I use it in my workout everyday. It's simple to set up, it never quits unexpectedly, and with it I've been able to create all the workouts that I need to read my fitness goals. Only downside is I can't link it to Spotify. Other than that, this is the best $2 or $3 I've ever spent on exercise "equipment"!

Simple and al aye delivers what you expect from it

Can I edit the volume or sound of the alarm? Too annoying ;-;

Thank you Mr. Cook. When you released the latest IOS upgrade it disabled my Apple music library. This is the third time it happened. As with the two previous ones, I had to troubleshoot it by myself (troubleshooting on line with even the a senior afvisor takes just as long; as my lifetime of 24 hours or more of troubleshooting with such wonderful people – truly wonderful professional – attests they are just as thwarted by the IOS BUGS) for four hours often and on for a week(inc signing in and out of everything). Not the first time this is happened. I think it’s because m each time you release an upgrade, it it wipes out my credit card information. But who knows maybe it was just signing in and of apple tunes. Strange because I have a renewing paid up subscription to Apple Music and it was fully pay for it in before this upgrade. I was so frustrated I bought another subscription for Apple match for $27, Which seems to be a necessary part of re-activating Apple Music. I still cannot get the Apple Music playlists back or the personal playlist I created. When I pull those up there is no music in them. I I don’t just go through this trouble because I pay for Apple Music. I do it because I love it and play it on my phone constantly throughout the day. I assume the Apple wants more subscribers to the service. If so, I humbly suggest, is Aamir Consumer, that you avoid this problem in future upgrades. M To compensate us for this, Please give us a Killswitch to stop our kids from playing games on their screens, which makes my teenagers meltdown. In other words, give me the adult organizers of family share ability to disable all apps used by child members of a family share group to block their use of the phone even altogether, independently of the ineffective such features counting by ones ISPs Comcast, Verizon etc. But I the ISPs would lose the revenue thev generate selling streaming data. In the interest of transparency, would please release the contract terms for the for Syd and the amount of money that you obtain from such agreements.. I would eat my hat if you don’t share in that revenue – directly or indirectly. You may counter that I can simply turn off the Wi-Fi but of course0f course the rub is that the kids can simply turn on their data streaming, when I disable or Wi-Fi router ((which by the way is now built into the ISP cabe modem so I will lose my ability to access Wi-Fi). Perhaps I should write to my senator to ask you to testify before the senate interstate commerce committee, or whichever committee is now raking poor Mr. Zuckerberg over the coals. Thank you so much Mr. Cook, and your shareholders (Remembering that only a tiny fraction of society owns any stock trade it on the market it’s either individually or even through their 401(k) or other institutional accounts. Best regards.

Just would like HRM connection you can view while doing HIIT workout. Can't Airdrop your workout templates to others.

A few modifications with regard to layout options would enhance the experience, however great at what it was intended to do.

Love it

I use this app every day. It's the best out there. I also liked the previous version which I bought. You still lose your workouts when you upgrade. Fix that please. Also, please use larger fonts for rep counts in portrait, and bigger control buttons in landscape orientation.

Use this everyday. Easy to set and alter workouts. Keeps track of daily usage and is easy to read and colorful! Syncs with Music easily. Highly recommended

I used to measure sets by some number of reps. Now I base my routine on how long it takes to do each set. I schedule my entire routine in the app and the app keeps me moving. I know exactly when I will finish and I don’t get distracted between sets.

I like how this app can preset an entire workout, but it’s missing two key functions: -3sec countdown tick for the start/end of each change -narration of what you’re supposed to do

I use the pro for timed exercises and it's great. Highly recommend.

Good changes easy to use.

Generally very solid and flexible app. Lacks a few refinements like being able to play shuffled playlists, but overall very good. I find the simple timing routines are plenty flexible for my needs, but that there are more complex things is nice.

Excellent workout app. I use it to customize my warrior Xfit workout as well as rounds for kickboxing. Very easy to make routines and add sounds.

I really dig this app. Easy to use-keeps ya on track with your workout and fine tuned very nicely. Must have for those unmotivated days!

This app does ONE thing really well. Kudos to keeping it simple, clean and smart.

... That it would add up the total time at the low intensity and show that number and add up the total time at the high-intensity and show that total

Performs exactly as advertised! Have used for close to 6 years for walk/run marathon training. Well worth the price!

I appreciate the user friendly interface! I use this timer for outdoor training and supersets and the gym 💪 My only recommendation is to have folders to save custom timers and keep things a bit more organized

I purchased the upgrade thinking it would give me more options, but there isn’t anything different between the free version and paid version as far as I can tell. What a rip-off.

Interval Timer Pro does just what I want, without a lot of distracting, hard-to-understand extras.

I really enjoy this app, when I stick to it lol! Easy to customize - works well for me and makes me feel accomplished.

Getting the PRO version is a waste of time. There’s nothing “defining” or “groundbreaking” to make you pay $3 for the exact same features. Certain sounds were removed so you’re actually getting less.

Very handy. I like it. Would like to have a text box to put routine description/ instructions in. And I wish it would sync my routines with my IPAD. Also make it Apple Watch enabled. Thanks

I’m a PE teacher and workout regularly. I use this app all the time. It’s great.

I just wish I could customize each set. But I love it

Excellent

Works great for physical therapy exercises. Counts out the reps and the 'hold' time for each exercise.

Bad

I LOVE this app! I use it in my workout everyday. It's simple to set up, it never quits unexpectedly, and with it I've been able to create all the workouts that I need to read my fitness goals. Only downside is I can't link it to Spotify. Other than that, this is the best $2 or $3 I've ever spent on exercise "equipment"!

Lots of easy features

I just did it so I would not be asked again

This is a great app. I can customize for stretch time, workout time, and intervals in-between to relax and recover.

Works just fine for intervals & jumps- Get on your bike and ride!

Does everything I need!

Used for over a year now, very helpful

I’ve used the free and the paid versions for over a year. I really like this app for its feature and flexibility for my workouts.

My only request would be that it comes with a tabata timer out of the box. Worth the price

I submitted a bug report about the free version and paid versions not being compatible. Nothing has apparently been done about it yet. I would still recommend using the free version, because that’s what I am forced to do at the moment. Considering, I created a number of workout routines, before deciding to purchase the full version, and there is no way to transfer them over.

Use it for a variety of classes. Easy to use and follow.

Does what you need

Would love a pre-set tabata option

I recommend the pro version

Love it

I have both this and RoundTimer app, which the latter has not been updated for iOS 11. Just downloaded it, and it works great.

Customizable. Easy to use. I have a library for the exercise formats I lead. Please consider adding a sound effect as the timer countdowns from 3-5 seconds. I like to work with the participants and cue the countdown.

I want to control the colors on the daily graph

I love this app use it everyday for working out meditation yoga qigong breathwork. My only issue is now that I’ve upgraded I need to recreate All of my timers. You guys really need to put in a share feature that allows you to transfer a set timer. I share this app with many people and it would be much easier if I could send them the timer so yeah please Add a Share feature. Also the end of the timer always says “activity completed”. Can’t this be a sound tone instead of this annoying computer. Add share feature Take away the activity completed Thank you

This app works well. It takes a bit to get the hang of how it works but it is very adaptable and functional when you understand it. The Pro version is similar to the free but you have the ability to save your interval settings for individual workouts.

Works great!

I use IntervalTimer every day and it does what I need.

It allows me to totally customize (length/cycles/ sounds, Etc) any routine I desire! Intuitively designed as well as able to play music

I've been using this app since 2012 as a workout timer and have loved it. I decided to buy the paid version because I appreciate what this does. I use it for my workout times to increase efficiency by making intervals of work and rest time during weight training. I will now be using additionally to facilitate the Pomodoro Technique. I think this app has the best features and flexibility of multiple timers I have checked.

Use it daily for workouts during my lunch or breaks.

Just would like HRM connection you can view while doing workout. Can't Airdrop your workout templates to others.

I’m a paid user of this app and have used it for several years. I love it for my CrossFit workouts at home. Unfortunately due to an app, iOS, or AirPlay update I can no longer hear the app sounds through my AirPlay speakers

Great workout app.

Lots of easy features

Works great for my use, love the music integration. Needs ability to share workouts. I used the free version to test before buying the app and I had to recreate my workouts. Also, I use the app on multiple devices and I can’t share workouts between them.

Perfect timer. As simple or as complex as you want it.

Works well and helps me stay on pace to improve my run times.

A lot to like with lots of options. Would like to see daily times display through the week. The weeks total time is good but not enough.

Just what I needed.

The display is bright and the options for customizing are plentiful. I use it for all my HIIT workouts.

I’ve been using this app for a few years and I love it. It has become my go-to for all of my work-outs; whether it’s strength training cross-fit, or mountain biking. It has allowed me to add HIIT to whatever activity I happen to be doing for the day.

Very stable

Works in the background while I use PandoraOne. Wish it could say the number of second remaining every 5, 10, 15, or 30 seconds. It could say ... "60", "55", "50", ... "5", "0". A spoken reverse exponential count would be very helpful. It could say ... "60", "30", "15", "10", "5", "4", "3", "2", "1", "complete"

The interface for saving workouts isn't intuitive, but it's easy once you figure it out. It's also limited to system sounds. It would be nice if it offered a wide variety of sounds.

Updating my review. The app has really come back to me since they made sharing optional. (Nothing worse then trying to get in a workout rhythm and clicking on the share after timer and spending time trying to figure out what went wrong with your app). Aside from a few audio issues one of the best apps I have worked with. Tip for the audio issue. Make sure to have at least one music or sound file on your device. Hit the play at the bottom and then you can correct your devices audio levels as opposed to it trying to change the ringer as default.

Works well and helps me stay on pace to improve my run times.

Every my HIIT training I do with this app, I enjoy large screen with timer so you can see interval progress and this helps to survive sometime)

Love this app. I am a marathon runner who trains with the Galloway Run-walk-run method. I used this app to create all the specific intervals I need for workouts and races. It works seamlessly with my music, audible books, and podcasts. Also great to use for yoga and stretching to help with holding poses for the right amount of time. Indispensable for my training!!!!

I love the app, but wish it had a watch companion app.

I use it for TABATA as well.

I love it! This app is my friend!

I use this app for helping me get exercise intervals in between hours of sitting at my computer - 30min sitting/3min exercising. Helps a lot.

I love this app 👍🏿

I LOVE this app! I use it in my workout everyday. It's simple to set up, it never quits unexpectedly, and with it I've been able to create all the workouts that I need to read my fitness goals. Only downside is I can't link it to Spotify. Other than that, this is the best $2 or $3 I've ever spent on exercise "equipment"!

Been looking for an app to train to run. All the apps start out fine but then jump the run/walk intervals way too fast. I create a run sequence that pushes me and then up the run time by 5 or 10 seconds and reduce the walk time same way. Perfect training tool. LOVE this tool.

I love the way I can set this app up to give me the intervals I need. I can have multiple programs to fit my mood or fitness. Well done.

Awesome

Excellent app for routine. The company is great. They responded quickly for requests and fixed problems immediately. Amazing!!

It allows me to totally customize (length/cycles/ sounds, Etc) any routine I desire! Intuitively designed as well as able to play music

What a great little app. It takes some time to figure it out and set it up, but once you do, the sky’s the limit. I love its simplicity when I’m running or using an elliptical machine (my favored activities). It really is set and forget and it keeps me on track for my entire workout. I ended up paying for the pro version simply to support the developer (Please don’t ever change this app!)

Wish it could do three sequenced intervals...not just two. Otherwise it's great!

Great product, top notch concern for customer feedback

Customizable. Easy to use. I have a library for the exercise formats I lead. Please consider adding a sound effect as the timer countdowns from 3-5 seconds. I like to work with the participants and cue the countdown.

My go to app to customize my workouts and not worry about timing as it does it all for me. Plus Love the calendar function which allows me see the types of workouts I do.

I couldn’t be more happier with this fitness timer. Handles music and playlists flawlessly. Highly recommend.

Love using this all but the latest update is pretty sloppy. Any music that is playing is turned down through the entire workout and not just when the timer beeps. Workouts are different colors in the list with no apparent reason.

Use this everyday and developer makes improvements regularly.

It would be better if there was a way to add any new IntervalTimer in the middle of a sequence.

I use this app every day. It's the best out there. I also liked the previous version which I bought. I finally "upgraded" to the paid version of the new app and am disappointed. It simply loaded a new app without migrating my workouts. That'll be a pain for me. I wish I could get an ready refund and stay with the free version.

Great stuff

I use this for an exercise program and I found it very convenient and easy to use without any problems.

Works well, have been using for several years. Updates keep coming and keep it up with latest phones.

Great app, I have been using it for years as a clock chime to count off time while I am working. I tend to focus too much and lose track of time. This app gently reminds me how much time I have left without interrupting the flow state. Gently is the key word. There only 1-2 sounds I can use, the rest are too jarring. And the trouble is I need to change the sounds periodically, because after a while I stop noticing them if I am too deep in thought. WOULD YOU KINDLY ADD MORE SOUNDS, which would be SHORT and PLEASANT. Or connect system own sounds. Thank you very much for considering. Wonderful app,otherwise, I use every day for several hours.

Been using this at the gym for years. Works fantastic! Worth the money over free ones.
