UltraTimer App Reviews

Limitless customization!

Wow this is one awesome, versatile timer! I was looking for a more flexible interval timer, which is what this is but WAY more. I really like that you can program in voice commands (such as in the Fight Gone Bad example workout) so that you don’t have to remember your workout sequence or look at the iPod or whatever to see the sequence. The sample timers are excellent and have given me ideas to program in additional ones. Easy to program & use!

Great app

I love this app - I use it everyday. No other timer in the app store comes close.

Mostly good

I wanted an app to time an exercise routine. This is the one I ended up using. But does not run in background for me. And would prefer a grid interface to see more data at once.

I like it.

Thus is a very flexible tool for setting up intervals. I wish it had a click sound for the seconds. Some exercise actions are best done with a click track to help time the motion.

Great.

Needs a stopwatch with a delayed timer. Maybe with audible start and stop.

Unreliable

A lot of bugs. Doesnt keep consistent intervals. The work/rest intervals periodically flip-flop, so you cant do a full workout as you designed it without things screwing up.

Buggy buggy buggy

This was my most used app. Since I upgraded to 5.0, the app will not open. I lost all my workouts. Spent two hours recreating the workouts, but now it crashes all the time. How could you release this garbage? The development team should be fired!!!

Tkd Instructor

This was one of my most used apps. Since i upgraded to 5.0, the app will not open. I lost all 20 of my workouts. I deleted it reloaded it everything. All together I spent 4 hrs trying to recreate just one of my workouts and all it does is crash. Please get this fixed ASAP!!

Its not bad

I like the app. Id give it 5 stars, however not being able to create your own categories is miss and its pretty fustrating when your sounds stop working, especially when your in a plank and not looking at the screen. Overall, its not bad.

Why does the sound stop working

This app is awesome and totally worth the price. However, why does the sound stop working after a while. Its really annoying when your relying on the sound to tell you to stop or start. Awesome app but please fix this problem and I can give it 5 stars.

Very good, but...

(v5.2) I like using this tool for my workouts and my clients. However, the sound goes out after a while. Please fix this bug so that I can five you 5 deserving stars!!!

It was great....until the sound stopped working

Im with everyone else.... I loved this app until the sound stopped working (after the last upgrade?). Fix it back and I will happily give you five. Thanks! Gila

FIXED!!!!

SO HAPPY over the program fixes! Now Im totally happy with this timer. Its great for creating my own personalized time intervals. Helps me speed through my workout.

Sound does not work - neither does customer service

Ultratimer sounds stop announcements mid session rendering use of this product frustrating and maddening. You are left in the middle of a workout session NOT knowing what to do next without constantly watching the timer display. I find this product then useless. It seemed to BREAK in 5.2 release. What is even more maddening is CUstomer Service has not acknowledged the previous sound stopping complaints and issued either a) an option to download previous release OR b) state intended direction to fix. Instead ONE is left wondering if this product is of any use. IN MY HUMBLE OPINION..... beware of ANY Plain and Simple software products based on customer service response. It really isnt that hard to perform good customer service.

Also have problem with sound!!

As the other reviews mentioned my sound stops working - about 25 minutes or so into my workout. I normally play music on it at the same time. Music continues to play but buzzers dont work. Used to be my all-time favorite app - now I have gone back to using my large boxing timer for the interval portion of my workout.

Please Fix!!!

Loved this app until it randomly stopped playing sounds. Wont even use it now. Please fix ASAP.

New version works great - an essential app for me

Ive used UltraTimer since it first came out and love it even though I prefer some of the older versions with easier volumn adjustments and fewer sounds to choose from. Thanks for all the updates and a great product.

Great app!

Fantastic App! Does exactly what I need it todo. This is way more configurable than the others Ive seen. Imho, this beats the others - no question. For those hunting around for an app that you can configure to your needs, rather than adapting to someone elses workout schedule- start looking at this app first. I wish I had. A couple suggestions: 1) Give an option to start a specified iPod playlist with each timer or interval, or just continue with the currently playing playlist, or no music. I like to randomize the songs to avoid monotony, but my warmup music isnt what I want for my training music. This will allow for quiet time during break intervals too. 2) Choose interval warning sounds from iPod songs so I can make/import my own clean mp3s and use them for transition sounds. 3) The fade out/pause music doesnt seem to work very well for me, so its hard to tell if you support fade out when using Pandora as well. Maybe that needs a second look. Anyway, these are my top three sugguestions. This is a great app already- Im looking forward to what you have planned for the future. Well done!

Great App--Works as Advertised

In searching for a good, programable interval timer, I downloaded (and paid for!) a couple of so-so apps before I came across this one, which absolutely blows the others out of the water. Its completely programable, intuitive and--unlike the others I came across--provides real support and instructions. Creating and editing sessions is a breeze, and the interface is clean and, as far as I can tell, bug free. Seriously, drop the $1.99, program it to do what you want, and get down to business.

Audio volume ducks and doesnt resume

A problem has recently developed wherein the application ducks the music volume for the ending sound of a set, but does not bring it back up to normal after the sound. I have to shut the app down to get normal volume again.
