Q: How to switch the Timer Output Mode?
A: To switch the Output Mode touch the timer display at the top of the screen.

Very useful for timing exercises. Thank you. J
Great app but green light is always on watch
Hey there, love the app and want to use it throughout the whole day. Unfortunately when the periodic timer is running my watch’s green light is on the entire time and I’m worried it will overheat. Is there a way to prevent this please? Thank you :)
Developer Response ,
Hello! The app is require workout mode because it's the only way to run the timer and play vibrations in the background, while screen is off. But you can disable heart-rate sensor all over the watch. On the watch go to Settings > General > Workout and activate Power Saving Mode. This will disable green lights and save power, but you will need to enable the sensor again, if you want to measure pulse. You also can save battery by disabling geolocation: Settings > General > Location Services. (Information is valid for watchOS 4.2).
Brilliant app- turn on notifications for alarm to work in screen save.
Love this app, and no problems with notifications turned on.
