Seconds Interval Timer 4+

Easy to use and incredibly flexible customisable timer

A simple, easy to use and flexible custom timer that I use all the time. I love the text to speech to let me know what activity is coming up with a countdown timer of 3-2-1 as a lead in.
The voice over alert for half way is very useful too. However, I’d like to have the ability to set alerts at other custom times eg in an activity of 20 mins I’d like to have more alerts than just one at the 20 minute mark.
I also agree that there is not enough ‘ducking’ of the music that’s playing when a voiceover alert comes on, particularly when playing through my watch. Setting the audio level of both independently or allow setting of a custom ducking level would be welcome.

Developer Response ,

You may set the audio level of the alerts, music and ducking independently as long as you disable the system player and instead use the app's internal music player. The only issue with this is that the app's internal player cannot play music that contains Digital Rights Management such as that of Apple Music's subscription service.

If you are using Apple Music then there are no options available to me as the developer. The only volume control is the system volume which reduces both the music and the alerts, and any other sounds your device makes. And the ducking is an option provided by Apple and has no configuration.

Essential Health Tool

I've been using this app for a few years now on both my iPad and iPhone and I absolutely love it! I've got some staple routines on here for my physiotherapy exercises which make it really easy for me to consistently and correctly progress through my rehabilitation, and numerous circuit activities that also make my fitness more enjoyable and keep me pushing right to the last second, and if I think of or see any new circuits it couldn't be easier to quickly add them to my list of programs so I don't have to think, just do. I highly recommend this for everyone

Great app -really flexible

I think I tried around 10 interval timer apps, this one does everything I want plus a bonus of spoken interval names and countdowns. All the others had some weird limitation which meant I couldn’t get them to work my way. This is so flexible I challenge you to find an exercise circuit or interval pattern that you can’t create. On top of that, you have the option of a one time payment at a reasonable price instead of subscription.
