About this app

Tired of boring workout timers? With ViaStop, YOU become the coach!

ViaStop is the looper for your workouts: simply sequence "markers," save them, and loop them. You can build an entire workout module—from warm-up to final stretch—and perform it in one go. No account, no connection: everything is local and offline, on your phone.

THE FUNNIEST PART: YOUR VOICE... AND YOUR FACE
• Record your markers directly from the app with AUDIO or VIDEO: shout "GO!", "STOP!", "Come on, 5 more seconds!" in your personal trainer voice... or show yourself performing the exercise!
• Alternatively, upload your own audio or video files, or use the included audio files.
• Record the NAMES or DEMONSTRATIONS of the exercises (e.g., "Squats," "Planks," "Burpees") and insert them into the sequences: during the workout, the audio or video starts at the right time.
Each series becomes personal, exciting, and—let's face it—exhilarating.

TRAINING MODULES
• Organize sequences and audio into "modules": self-contained packages, one for each type of session or for each student.
• Create, rename, duplicate, and switch between modules with a tap.
• Start the entire module in one go: all the sequences in a row, from the warm-up to the final stretch.

SHARE WITH YOUR STUDENTS
• Export a module to a file and send it to whoever you want, audio and video included.
• The recipient imports it and trains at YOUR pace and YOUR words, even when you're not there.
• Perfect for coaches and personal trainers: a customized program for every student.

MARKERS (each can have an AUDIO or VIDEO)
• Go — the signal for "start."
• Stop — the signal to stop.
• Break — a timed wait with an on-screen countdown.
• Workout — a timed work phase with a countdown.
• Active Rest — a timed active recovery phase with a countdown.
• Exercise — announce (or show) the exercise with your own recorded audio or video (e.g., "Squats").
• End — the sound that ends the workout with a bang.

In the player, if a marker has a video, the video starts full-screen behind the text; at the end of the video, it continues in a loop while the music and countdowns resume.

BUILD YOUR OWN SEQUENCES
• Add markers in any order; rearrange, edit, and delete.
• Assign a phase directly to Go, Stop, and Exercise: the audio announces, then the phase starts — without separate markers.
• Choose timed (with countdown) or repetition-based phases: count your reps and press "Done!" when you're finished.
• Repeat audio cues N times (e.g., Go x3).
• Add recommended repetitions and "coach tips": a note that appears when the sequence starts.
• Save, rename, and duplicate your sequences.

FLEXIBLE LOOP
• Repeat the entire sequence a fixed number of times or infinitely.
• Even perform a single marker on the fly.

MUSIC AND FOCUS
• Looping background music accompanies timed and repetition-based phases (can be disabled).
• Plays alongside your favorite music.

DESIGNED FOR THE GYM
• Full-screen display: marker, countdown, and progress can be read even from a distance.
• Continues to work even when the screen is locked or another app is open.
• Option to keep the screen on during the workout.

100% PRIVATE
• No accounts, no servers: your data and recordings stay on your phone.

Become your own coach. Record, train, share, have fun. GO!

What’s new

The first public release of ViaStop.

Build your own workout sequences with spoken cues: hear "Squat", "Go" and "Stop" without having to look at your phone, hands busy.

Group sequences into modules, then export and share them: a coach builds the plan, the athlete receives it and trains with it.

Enjoy your workout!
