5/5Versatile 👍🏼
I use this timer for everything — working out, sure, that was the original use case. But I was also able to immediately adapt this app to try out Pomodoro when it first started making noises in the world of focus techniques. Years later, I still use my 50/10m work/rest schedule every day to help get big focus-heavy paintings done, then easily switch to any other timer schedule I need for working out in the evening. I like that the schedule names support emoji which makes it fast to visually identify the one I need for my next task. A cool settings option to implement would be phone notification integration, so the app could send pings to watches. Thanks for the years of helping me both get work done and rest regularly!

4/5Easy to use, but not perfect
I started using this app for home workouts when I couldn’t make it to the gym. I prefer group fitness classes, so home workouts need to be shorter with more intensity for me to be motivated to do them. That being said, for the few times that I AM motivated to work out at home, using this app (along with my own list of exercises that target what I want to work on) gives me the structure to get it done. However, the “rest” periods between exercises are also right before the 1-min recovery between sets, which is confusing if you don’t know that beforehand or don’t really know how Tabata works. Also, they put a 1-min recovery period after the last set, which is then followed by the cool down period; again, this is fine if you know Tabata format and just think of it as a longer cool down but can be confusing if you’ve never done Tabata before. I haven’t played with it enough to see if I could eliminate the extra “rest” periods before recoveries or the end recovery before the cool down, so maybe that’s somewhere in the settings that I didn’t see. However, for a basic timer to get you through a workout, this works for me.

3/5Features in pro version don’t work
Useful timer but fairly basic with limited ability to customize functions such as the timing of alerts. Most alerts are also somewhat obnoxious, they would do well to include a selection of clear, identifiable alerts that are more subdued. I do have a gripe. I paid for the pro version after using the basic. The improvements were minor. Which I suppose is what it is. HOWEVER many of the functions flat out don’t work or function improperly interfering with basic features. For instance, the option for a tone three seconds prior to the end of an exercise repeats itself with one second to go. There are similar problems with other functions. There appears to be no option to increase the sound volume on voice announcements relative to music playing simultaneously. There is a function to reduce (or turn off?) music volume during voice announcements BUT IT DOESN'T WORK. In conclusion this is a good basic interval timer that is a few tweaks away from being awesome. Which suggests to me that the designers don’t care / they just want folks to buy the pro version. I hope they prove me wrong by fixing the “broken “ functions first, then improve customizability.

2/5Sleazy business tactics
The app is very good, or would be if they didn’t engage in sleazy and deceptive business tactics. Even though I bought the full version, it still shows ads, and won’t work without an internet connectivity to get the ads. If anyone knows of a similar app that isn’t made by dishonest sleazebags, please let me know. Update: Responding to comment below. That seems to work. It’s not as bad as I thought (see above), but the fact that they took it on themselves to change something about how an app that I payed for, on my phone, works, which made it freeze when it didn’t have internet access, is not an acceptable way to treat our customers. Unless I make a specific change on my phone( update OS, etc., the functioning of apps that I’ve payed for should not change. The vast majority of apps that I own that don’t inherently require an internet connection to function work this way, and the decision to mess with functionality on a customer’s phone is a *decision,* and one that is hostile toward your customers.

5/5Tabata for Body Building
I am 61 years old and I build and sculpt my body. I have been working out regularly during this phase of life for at least six years. I started with standard body parts or muscle group exercises, with dumbbells, bands, cables and free weights. I have always felt the need to WORK and not waste time between sets and as my routine evolved, I moved to interval training using an electronic timer. I saw a vast improvement and found out about the Tabata method, began employing it for body building movements and vigorously improved stamina and muscle growth. I keep a training log and take pictures regularly. Now, I am not Arnold, nor do I want to be- but I want to be healthy, mobile, and ripped. This Tabata app works great. For phone and Bluetooth use, it does the trick.
