When you need structure this is definitely what helps. Can play music while running and the count down is helpful.

The watch app is useless. The app itself runs on the phone and reflects on the watch app without haptics, vibration or sound. You either need headphones or to hold the phone. I sent the dev a note but did not get a reply. For some one with tinnitus the headphones are a no go and holding the phone isn’t convenient. I dont have an issue carrying the phone but haptics, vibration or sound would make the watch app relevant.
