About this app

Seconds is widely recognised as the best interval timer for HIIT & Tabata training for mobile devices and is recommended by celebrity trainers and personal trainers to their clients all around the globe.

BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD:
Non-paying users may create as many timers as they wish, but once an interval timer is started it may not be used again. Upgrading to the full version removes this restriction.

FEATURES:

• Large, full screen, color coded display that is easy to read from a distance. The display works in either landscape or portrait.

• Templates for HIIT, Tabata and circuit training. A custom template to create every interval. And the compound editor where you can combine many interval timers into one.

• Speaks your interval names so that you can follow a workout without seeing the screen at all. Seconds can even provide prior warning of the upcoming interval. Other alerts including beeps and bells are available.

• Coordinate your music with your Tabata workout. Each interval can have its own music assigned allowing you to match the intensity of your music to the intensity of your HIIT workout.

• Seconds runs in the background allowing you to either have your display off, or use other apps while the HIIT timer is active.

• Export and import. Share the Tabata timers with friends or download them from the web and install them in Seconds.

Ratings and reviews

As a timing app, it's great. However, the fact that the app doesn't respect device settings for locking orientation is aggravating. Unless you lock the screen within the app, the app will try to find the "best" orientation between portrait or landscape, usually resulting in a constant swap between the two. However, once locked in the app, it locks all interactions and you can no longer pause, restart, etc.. The last thing I want to do mid-exercise is wrestle with my timing app.

I like the flexibility of being able to really customize anything I want with this timer, and the templates that allow some things to be done fairly quickly. I like the Text-to-Speech so I don't have to look at it for every interval. I would like it better if when I tapped in the field labeled "Exercise 1," I didn't have to backspace to delete all that before typing what I want the field to be called. But it's been very helpful.

*Update 03.13.20* Works great now. No issues. If you're looking for an internal timer that's easily customizable, this is it. Previous Review Crashes about 18 minutes in every time I'm trying to do a session of run/walk. This using one plus 7 pro. It would be perfect if it did not crash, as it was easily customizable. I would like to request a refund since this app is unusable for me. Edit:. I found possible work around. Will update review after I test it more.
