Great app great help

The app is top but the guy who developed it is even better. I was asking for help by email about some functionality and he spent a lot of time by email with immediate responses and was very helpful. Nothing wrong with app, just some things I needed answering about music and how the interval works. Highly recommended.

Intervals are Strangely Broken in Plus

A single set can be loaded with as many intervals as you want, but the app will not run any intervals in a set beyond the eighth one, e.g., if your workout has one set with 10 intervals, the workout will “complete” after the end of the 8th interval and simply ignore the 9th and 10th. There are other problems as well. Even the example workout that is loaded with Plus is broken — it’s supposed to be three sets of two intervals, but it ignores the second interval on the third set when it runs. It’s the example workout, you’d think that at least that one would work correctly. It gets a second star however for its clean design.

Hi there,Please contact us at pacer@brightmediums.com and we will be happy to make sure your issue gets resolved. Please not that any final intervals that are rest intervals will not run on the last set. This is a feature, not a bug.I assure you we have tested all the timers in the sample timers section and they function as intended. If you are experienced issues beyond what is outlined here, it might be due to specifics of your phone and or configured timer. We will be happy to work with you to resolve it swiftly if you contact us.Thank you for using Pacer.

Death of a good app

The app will no longer run in the background or when the screen is locked. The counter still counts but the noises stop so I don’t know when my interval is up. Since I can’t hear the noises with the screen locked I have to workout with the screen unlocked. This causes my phone to constantly switch to viewing ads in safari if the screen accidentally gets tapped. Used to love this app now it’s basically useless as it doesn’t work properly if the screen is locked or if another app is open. I used to watch Netflix while doing elliptical intervals and that is no longer possible since the app doesn’t work if another app is open.

Great App - Flexible and Customizable

Great timer app! Love the flexibility and the new UI and customizations. One future update request: add the ability to adjust the Countdown Time length. It would be great to have the capability to set a countdown time longer than 3 seconds, or have the ability to add a unique countdown time per custom timer.

Developer Response
Great suggestion. We will try to find a way to incorporate this into a future release.Thank you!
