User Reviews
Pros
- Simple, easy-to-use timer that reliably tracks rest periods and sets.
- Helps users stay on task and remember their sets.
- Works on Apple Watch for on-wrist timing during workouts.
- Vibration/haptic alerts signal the end of a rest interval.
- Lightweight, minimal interface that stays out of the way during workouts.
Cons
- Intrusive ads after updates (including full-screen and banner ads) that interrupt workouts; no option to remove ads.
- Automatic progression to the next set or altered rest times after changes, which disrupts workout flow.
- Apple Watch reliability issues, including timers completing unexpectedly or glitches when used during workouts.
- Occasional crashes/resets when the app runs in the background or while multitasking.

It was a greattt app especially because I use it on my Apple Watch to time my rest time and sets and I love that it vibrates a little so I can feel it when my musics loud. Well when I put up weights and clean the machine which takes a couple more seconds it will automatically go onto the next set and or complete my task without me changing it so I end up loosing track and it automatically adds more sets and longer rest time when I change exercises.For me that’s a deal breaker. Hopefully it gets fixed because that would definitely change my rating of this app:)

This was an amazing, simple app that tracked sets and rest times. Then, they made an update where the screen would get stuck on an ad after each set. I understand ads, but the ad used to only go on after you finished all sets. Now, it pauses your entire workout as the ad blocks the screen and disrupts in between sets.
EDIT: the creator listened to feedback and updated, now it’s great! 5 stars.

EDIT: The developer actually addressed this issue. I’m updating this to a 5 star review. Thank you so much for fixing this!
So I’ve been using this app for years during my workouts. It’s been awesome, a super simple platform that I needed. There’s always been a little banner ad at the bottom of the page which I don’t mind, since it doesn’t interfere with the timer. However, there was just an update to the app the past few days. Before I updated, I thought to myself “I really hope they aren’t going to put in ads now”. And sure enough, now there are ads that interrupt your session. You already have banner ads on the app, there is no need to interrupt our workouts with the pop up ads. I wish I could give this app 5 stars, but it’s such a shame that the developers put in ads. I’m not one to write poor reviews on anything, and this may be the first time I’ve ever done so. The new ads just irritate me so much. I might just switch to the built in Apple timer until this gets resolved (if it ever does).
