Perfect. Can't ask for more. The cycles feature is a game changer. It has enabled me to go from 20-25 minutes of slackful exercise to 45-60 minutes of intense exercise. Amazing
It is great, just as an add, it would be super cool if we could name each set with an exercise description
I love this timer! I have been using it over the last eight years or so, and I really enjoy the paradigms it is built upon: concise, intuitive, practical, simple, reliable and wery effective! Even the free version has enough of what is needed to enjoy a god tabata workout. Thanks a lot to the developers.
I use this app a lot and love it's flexibility. The only fault I've found is that when you edit the setup, you have to go back to the main screen then go to the edit screen and back a second time before the new values take affect. I'm using it on Moto G6. Edit - I have not been able to recreate this bug, so I've updated my rating to 5. I use Bluetooth to pair it with the stereo at the gym so the whole class can hear "get ready to start your 12 minute workout" - "exercise!"
Well worth every penny! For the last four years, I've been doing strength workouts using videos as guides, and, rarely, writing out what exercises I want to do and how many reps and sets to do of each. I've done tabata workouts before, but I've found other apps to be clunky and unintuitive when it came to setting up what I wanted to do. This app is ridiculously easy to configure. It's literally taken my workouts to the next level.
correct me if I am wrong, but this app does not work correctly when the screen is turned off. Personally, I would like to save my battery by leaving the screen off and would hope that this app would continue working in the background but this does not happen. In fact I get erratic behavior when I turn the screen off in that, sometimes it picks up at the countdown where it left off and sometimes it continues to countdown my only a few seconds. Correct this issue and I would give it five stars.
The app itself is lovely & I love that I can add music from my phone, and that I can set the timing of the first set to start when the music kicks in, but disappointed that I can't find anywhere on my saved sets to write in what exercises I'm doing on each set. For an app that costs Β£10.50 for the pro version I would have thought it would be able to have an area on screen with a prompt of what I've written for each of the 8 working sections. Seems stupid that I have to have a piece of paper next to my phone with it handwritten on, when other Tabata timer apps not as good as this one will let me type in my own details for each set.
This is a very good app , it provides all the tools for your tabata workout. I use it for Walk and run Intervals. The free version is great by itself, but for a one time small purchase, it unlocks some pretty cool additional features. Plus, I believe in supporting developers of apps this good...now if you could just incorporate a gps feature to detect milage, it would be perfection.
I tried several HIIT timers and tabata timers to find a simple tabata timer that worked right out of the box and could easily be modified and customized for any HIIT workout. This was the only app that fit the bill and it does it perfectly. been using it for years and on multiple devices. And the motivational quotes after the workout are awesome. I share them with my friends and family often. I love this app.
I love it!! As a lazy couch potato your app helps me have the self discipline to get a good workout. I have presets for aerobic, weights, and core workouts. I use Spotify playlists. Wish there was a way to combine the two. Finally, no sympathy for the cheapskates that don't want to pay your paltry fees for lifetime use and support, and then complain about ads....
The presets are not always loading correctly, missing confirmation that it has been loaded. Unable to rearrange the order of presets, only delete and save. Missing option for overwriting existing preset only save as so one ends up with multiple resets with the same name. It doesn't display estimated total time in presets. Incessantly nagging to leave feedback. And I'm still looking for the option to turn off nagging to share the workout when finished,not everyone is an exhibitionist. Just a few
2 things: 1) While otherwise amazing, there's a default setting glitch when synching to Google Fit. Every "work" interval is synched to Google Fit as being 10 seconds long - no matter what the interval actually is. So for Ex:, my HIIT session with 6 work rounds of 30secs, (3 min total) will only get counted by Google Fit as 1 minute. 2) Music can only be played by selected hard files on the phone. All other audio is automatically stopped when the timer's in use. WHY? (Booooooo)
Been working out with my phones timer for months until my wife put me on to this app. Its great! Shows the times with tones as you work out, I don't even have to check the time on my workout! The tones let me know when to stop and start back. App also keeps my phone from locking the screen to keep timer visable, but if I wanted I could be in other apps like Spotify and the workout keeps going which is great for changing songs on the fly. Couldn't be happier!! ππ
So easy to use! I love that I can have my own music in the back!!!!
Class, very easy to set up to the workout you want
Totally enjoying, easy to program if ur familiar with Tabata.
My go to for my quick HIIT training.. 21 minutes tabata (32 set, 20/10) dripping in sweat!!
UPDATE: 8/19/20 Parabolic River granted my refund request and were very understanding. I'll keep an eye out for the updated version. - - - - - - - - Useless Voice Assist (Announce) I bought the app so I can use this Announce feature. As an instructor, it will be a nice little coach to help me know what exercise is to come next especially if I'm checking every student in class on their form and focused on cueing movement. But alas, it doesn't work. I need them to either: REFUND ME or FIX THIS.
Has lots of settings to get just the work out you need. Great app. Thanks
I honestly love this timer. The only thing that I don't like about it, but is liveable, is that the break and the rest period times count separately between cycles. However, the ads are short and only pop up after you change the timer settings, and this app is very good and useful.
Great app. Intuitive to set up and a solid feature set in free version with very clear info about paid options without persistent nagging to buy them. Used this to drop almost 2 stone exercising in short bursts of HIIT during lunch break at work a few years ago. Would recommend to anyone looking for a good exercise timer.
I found this app first on Amazon apps and I loved it. Sadly it's no longer on Amazon Kindle fire. Can the makers tell me why? And we NEED it back on Amazon. NOW. Also can you give us color change options between the REST timer which is green and the WORK timer which is red. Would like that manually interchangeable. I ask this since green tends to designate MOVE and REST (STOP) is usually Red. That said, this is a definite recommend. Still my best workout app. Amazon store needs this ASAP.
Great app and so easy to use. Only reason for losing a star is not being able to change the names of the timer intervals or overriding the same saved file. You have to save as a "new" name. Also not able to see progress for historical routines completed. You MUST use Google Fit if you wish to review any progression trends.
Once you become familiarized w the settings, this timer is perfect for my HIIT wkouts, I absolutely give it a ππΎ! Great timer for any fitness level. Oh and you can use the app while listening to your fav music - a definite plus.
Works every time!!!!! Only issue I have is I wanted to be able to have a certain amount of exercises per set but I caught on really quick that the set is the total amount of exercises and I was off and running, wonderful app, 5 stars either way
