Review summary

Users appreciate Interval Timer for its simplicity, ease of use, and customizable basic interval and rest settings without ads. However, common complaints include limited sound customization, inability to run multiple timers or complex intervals, occasional timer inaccuracies, and app interruptions caused by phone battery optimizations. Many users desire features like saving presets, custom labels, and better sound control. Despite minor issues, most find it effective for straightforward interval timing needs like workouts, productivity, and practice sessions.

Pros

Simple and easy to use interface praised by multiple users.
Fully customizable timer settings for intervals and rest periods.
No ads and nag-free experience providing a pleasant user experience.
Lightweight and efficient app for basic interval timing tasks.
Allows vibration alerts and audible beeps helpful during workouts.

Cons

Limited ability to customize or mute the beep sound during intervals.
Lack of functionality for multiple simultaneous timers or complex interval sequences.
Issues with timer accuracy causing discrepancies over longer durations.
App sometimes stops running or notifications fail, especially when screen is off or due to battery optimization settings.
Limited preset saving and labeling options, making switching exercises less efficient.

2022-11-26	Ci*****	Great overall. My only issue is that it doesn't seem to keep exact time. I use the app concurrently with map my run. I start them both at the same time and time elapsed is different by several minutes at the end of a run. Example, time elapsed on time will be 22 mins, but map my run will say it was 25 mins. It's about 10 seconds off on each interval.

2022-09-28	Lo*****	I needed this app for vibration alerts only. There is a setting to turn vibration on and off but not one for the sound. Annoying that I can't mute the beeps while I am listening to music during the workout intervals. Edit: Developer pointed out this can be changed AFTER starting the timer. Not exactly intuitive imo but it's there. This app now meets my needs perfectly.

2022-08-25	Da*****	There's a static-like buzz which accompanies every sound while playing on my LG phone. I tried every sound option available. ... Otherwise, love the design and simplicity!! (Reply 2) Hi. Ive tried reinstalling (3-4 times now); unfortunately same problem. I should say, it worked fine for a few days at the start (before last update?). (Reply 3) I just downloaded your app on my Samsung tablet and it works fine! So, I guess there's an LG issue. (R4) Sorry, Markus, the prob is still there. Good luck!

2022-08-19	Av*****	Truly free and nag-free, pleasant interface, fully customizable. Only thing I missed (which developer claimed to be coming in future releases) is a means to save "presets" and "group of presets" to easily switch exercises in physiotherapy sessions.

2022-06-14	Ma*****	absolutely "beautiful" app, that does what most people would expect. it comes with just 1 pair of timers (workout and rest) that can be configured to repeat as many times as you want by setting the number of sets. my requirement is different (multiple timers - upto 10 - each with different timings, included in multiple sets). ignoring my requirement, this is a fantastic app for most gym folks. great job by the developer.

2022-06-03	Ji*****	The app does all the things but ffs it's a basic feature to be able to set the sound on an intetval timer. For some reason with this one you get a beep, and that's it. Like it or lump it. (Edit) thankyou for your reply markus. Might I suggest allowing the app access to media folders in the interim while you look at the outsourcing issue. This would solve your expense concern and allow your users the option of their own sound file.

2022-05-02	An*****	App set to use maximum battery. None of the notifications happened for the last set. Remaining rest period sets 2... Last bell announcing next set... Then nothing. Almost the PERFECT app. Then next test it stopped all together part way on 2nd rep. Battery settings are good as can be i wonder if this app is configured to run in back ground even if allowed by power settings. Almost perfect app.

2022-04-24	M *****	Very good for what it is: very simple circuit timer, 1 work+rest x # rounds. Nice display that can change between training and run+walk. Remembers single timer setting. The most lightweight app in my search. I'm used to an app that allows me to save multiple workouts with unique time sets in a series (replacing an older app) and so am looking for something slightly more advanced, probably Hybrid Int Timer, but this deserves credit for its simple efficiency. Great for C25K or Pomodoro.

2022-02-18	El*****	LOVE this app! Allows me to effectively switch between different exercises in the gym by allowing me to customize workout time... I can set an interval time and a rest time, while alternating back and forth for a set period of time. I can also listen to my music, but easily hear the beeps when to switch my exercise based on the beeps. One example I use this for is when I am doing my stretches. I set the time for 10 sets of 30 seconds for stretching with a 3 second break in between! Love it!

2022-01-17	Ga*****	Fantastic app. So simple to use and understand and has everything you need to personalise an interval timer and workout. Only thing for me is I don't really like the notification when the timer is running so I wish I could turn that off. Sometimes during rest periods I'll change songs or check other notifications and the notification for this app is quite large. Other than that, faultless app for me
