***** Important Note *****
Some devices (especially Huawei, Xiaomi, Samsung, OnePlus) have a very aggressive energy-saving mode. Due to this, background processes are quickly terminated. Therefore, it is necessary to disable the energy-saving mode for this app. Please note that further settings may also be necessary depending on the device.

Permissions:
- Phone status: The "Pause timer on incoming calls" feature requires the permission to read the phone status on Android 12 and above. If you want to use this feature, you can grant this permission in the app's settings.

Ratings and reviews

So... looks nice, perhaps a bit barebones, but: advanced sets is a *BIG* no no. If, after 10-15 minutes inputting a series of sets, preparation, cool downs, times, you go save and THEN it says "hey, you have to pay to save more than 2 sets!", and then you press back and you lose everything, you lost a customer forever. Warn about it *BEFORE*. I'd rather have ads than lose my time stupidly because I didn't pay fast enough (and I wouldn't have minded, probably).

Remember when apps offered a single, simple functionality for free and only very timidly asked you to pay a very reasonable price for a reasonable set of extra funtionalities (read: not a GPT wrapper)? Remember when they didn't intentionally cripple the one functionality you actually need in order to sell you an expensive subscription? This is an old breed of app, and it works damn well. I don't need any of the extra features, but I subbed anyways, as a tip.

Took a little messing around to figure out how to do what I wanted but now I can make heavy bag workouts with voice callouts. For example I make each exercise 30 seconds long, and every three of those exercises I add in a minute rest. Pretty straight forward. Also remember you can change the text to speech voice by changing it in your phone settings, because it's using whatever your phone already has set. Great app.
