Features & Capabilities

BMX random gate start cadence for your iPhone / iPod Touch.

OK riders, random start… Riders ready, watch the gate… beep-beep-beep-beeeeeeep...

This application allows you to play the random gate start cadence used in international BMX events no matter where you are with your iPhone or iPod Touch (random delay included!). A new random delay is generated every single playback, so you'll never know when the beeps will go. A "must have" for any serious BMXer.

Comes with a built in timer for delayed starts and auto repeat functionality so you can practice even when you are on your own. An excellent addition to any stumpy gate or sprints session.

User Reviews

Users praise Random Gate as an affordable, simple training tool that helps improve reaction time with a clear BMX cadence. It’s valued for quick startup, ease of use, and features like a repeat timer. However, several reviews report compatibility issues after iOS updates and crashes, with some devices (including the 6s) not running the app. Some users also cite a lack of timely developer support. Common requests include stopwatch timing, more personalization, and autostart controls.

Pros

Helps with reaction time and BMX training.
Excellent value for money at 99 cents.
Fast loading and simple, reliable cadence that works as advertised.
Easy-to-use and versatile for riders of different ages.
Repeat timer feature aids training sessions without needing to touch the app.

Cons

Major compatibility/maintenance issues after iOS updates; not running on newer devices (e.g., iOS 9.x, iPhone 6s).
Crashes and failure to launch (settings crash; app won’t open).
Limited or unresponsive developer support/contact for fixes.

Recent reviews

Lights are way off and unable to adjust timing. Lights go to green then tones sound.

With the current iOS the settings button causes the app to crash. Please update.

A really needed feature to have when using autostart is use two buttons, a reset and a skip. The skip of course lets you immediately trigger the 10 sec final count.
