## Review summary

Users praise Gymboss for its simplicity and flexibility—easy timer creation, customizable intervals, and the ability to view exercises with the timer, making it a trusted choice for home and travel workouts. However, multiple reviews cite update-related problems: alarms/sounds not playing or saving, timers disappearing, stability crashes, and interference with music playback. The core functionality remains valued, but reliability and audio behavior need fixing to restore trust.

### Pros

- Easy-to-use interface for creating and managing interval workouts.
- Highly customizable with both pre-made and user-created timers for various workouts.
- Clear audible cues and the ability to view exercises with the timer, great for home or travel workouts.
- A long-time favorite that users rely on for consistent interval timing.

### Cons

- Sound/alarms not working after updates (no sound, alarms not saving, beeps inconsistent).
- Timers and data disappearing or resetting after updates, making saved workouts unreliable.
- Stability issues and bugs introduced by updates (crashes, loops, navigation problems).
- App interferes with music playback or control (music stops or volume changes when opening the app).
