UltraTrainer for Positive User Reviews

Awesome for crossfitEspecially love the timer exchange which has every potential canned sequence I could ever want..Version: 5.3

Does exactly what I need it to doIt's not pretty, and it takes a bit of figuring out, but it's flexible and powerful and once you have a routine set up, it works great..Version: 5.3

Innovative idea!!As a long time user of the ultra timer I knew I had to try this out. I love the idea of randomized intervals and commands. Can't wait to fully implement this in my training programs. Thanks guys!!.Version: 0

Excellent motivator!My turbo trainer which was supposed to keep me cycling through the winter has sat in the garage for 90 days since I bought it. But this app got me on the bike today. It was hard work - I wish I'd found the motivator earlier! Just used the default cycling sequence but I also appreciate the ability to tweak this as I get used to how it works for me. Top app that does the job of an expensive gadget for under £2 - it's this kind of thing that makes the iPhone such a great platform..Version: 0

Great!Exactly what I had in mind!.Version: 5.3

Great app!!!Exactly what I was looking for. I hope the creators of this app provide constant updates as this is by far the best app I have seen of it's kind. Don't stop know....Version: 0

Great App for fitnessThis is an awesome app with lots of flexiblity..Version: 0

Couldn't for the life of me...Figure out why the sound kept disappearing 20 minutes into my workouts, now I know and am glad it's fixed. Wondering if anyone knows an easier way to transfer a workout to a regular ipod? I have quite a few workouts that I have to transfer to my regular ipod as it's less bulky to wear at the gym. Right now I have to record the workouts through an audio recording program which is very time consuming..Version: 5.3

Best Interval Timer - I bought them allThis is the best one on the market. We've used this for basic interval timing and complex multiphase fitness programs. Nothing comes close this app. They make it simple to setup complex sequences. We also like the easy way to share timers with other coaches - just select the timers you want to share, then email them for easy import. The only thing I'd like is to see an integrated heart beat monitor feature like one of the other products has. But as a flexible, well crafted interval timer, this one is the one we always use..Version: 5.5.2

Nearly perfectWorks great - the boxing action sounds really help mix up my heavy bag workouts, and setting up a sprint timer for HIIT was easy. I suggest making deleting actions, intervals, etc., more intuitive. Swiping to delete is common in apps, but as a shortcut. A delete button would be nice..Version: 0

Works great but what about free upgrade to HD?This app works pretty much as described - very flexible ways to set up intervals. I would have given it 5 stars except I received no response when I emailed about the free upgrade to UT HD for the iPad. It's the most flexible timer/interval app I haves used!.Version: 0

FANTASTIC!I was looking for a timer that I could customize to do burst or interval training on the treadmill. I also need something with good visual to know when the interval had changed. This is perfect! For 3 minutes, the screen is light blue and I have a low intensity interval. Then the screen is red for the 3 minute high intensity interval, and so on. I also have the duration of the intervals change throughout. So I get the number of intervals I want, the lengths I want, and a count down of the interval along with a color change on the screen. Excellent. Highly recommend! iPad version would be nice..Version: 0

2nd reviewOk re-installed app and lost all my custom timers. Found out from developers that you can share all your timers, this can be used as a back-up copy/email to self or Bluetooth to someone who also has app. The Bluetooth option also saves any audio commands you have recorded - great idea! So far, this time, it has been stable. I have to say I love this app, so versitile. You can program any type of intervals, and input any type of exercise with your own audio commands. I have about 12 different training rutines programed into the app. I teach karate and have also put many training rutines for my class on this app, from high paced and grueling repetition drills to reaction drills. I just plug it into external speekers and train along with the class. I can't speak highly enough of it's potential uses for both personal fitness and for team training! A few things that would make this an absolutely incredable app: 1. A built in training log 2. The ability to include within the actions, individual pics or possibly video clips. This would completely blow all other fitness apps out of the water! Thanks for a fantastic app, Really really impressed!.Version: 0

Very useful appThis app is well worth the few dollars it costs. It's a very useful tool for anyone who trains on their own or with a partner. I love the customizability and features. Also includes a great feature to share timers with other users..Version: 0

Workout WarriorFor anyone who loves to do Tabata and high intensity circuit training, this is a great app. Love the fact that I can create my own workouts and the random action feature is next level. I do have a question. I have recorded some of my own sounds and seem to have run out of audio storage. Is there a way to delete your own recorded sounds? Thanks!.Version: 5.3

Works wellAfter this last update everything seems to be working as it should. Very well actually! I would like to see bigger buttons though, as the ones that are on the app now are way to close together. As long as I don't have to pause anything I am ok. I have tried to pause the timer and hit the stop button instead. A way to lock the orientation would be a nice feature as well..Version: 5.3

Update makes it functional for me againAdded back support for OS3.x. I am again a happy camper, thanks!.Version: 0

Very happy customerFantastic app. Cannot praise this timer enough. Any boxers, kick boxers, mixed martial artists, actually anyone who trains alone occassionally should get this app. The fact you can record your own sounds on top of the vast array of pre recorded instructions means my shadow sparring or bag work will never be as boring again..Version: 0

Great appNeeds a stopwatch with a delayed timer. Maybe with audible start and stop..Version: 0

Much better than I expectedI haven't tried any of the other timers out there but I was VERY impressed with this one's functionality. Entering in the exercises is a bit of a pain, but once they're in there customizing routines is easy. At $3 I felt I got a lot more than I paid for. Update: being able to share programs across devices via wireless connection...very cool guys, thanks. Still using this app after well-over a year. I have about 30 different fitness programs..Version: 5.5.2

Great appVery good for time customization-best I have seen. Needs to be able to insert already made actions or intervals into workouts more easily and use custom sounds in workout from sound files on iPhone. Great app.Version: 0

Exceptionally usefulI am a professional martial artist and have used Ultra Trainer for years. Yeah, there’s a bug or two but there is no other random interval timer in existence that I know of, and it’s invaluable for solo training with a heavy bag. You record whatever combos you want and then while you work the bag UT makes you do them at random times. This is a game changer for building reaction time and adaptability. Without the app, you do a combo when you’re ready on your time, but with it you are forced to react just like you would to changing circumstances in a fight. I wish there was a dedicated hardware unit that would do the same thing but as is, Ultra Trainer does it’s job admirably. If you are concerned with it’s integration with your music library, you aren’t training hard enough! Thanks devs. Superior product that fills a real need..Version: 7.5

Current version Does fix the bugs mentioned in the reviewThis was a very useful app until a few updates ago. Now the sound is unreliable by often not playing after 15 min or so. Why don't you just role back the updates since so many people are complaining about ultratrainer and ultratimer not working anymore. The slightly newer interface didn't add much. Update: 5.3 does fix it! Thank you. Now this app rocks..Version: 5.3

Getting Better!I've had this app for some time now and I can honestly say they are making efforts to improve and make this app more user friendly and versatile. I am impressed!.Version: 5.5.2

IssueThere is an issue with the "action setup - minimum/maximum duration" When changing the duration, it goes to 0 and cannot be changed back, this means that when actions are being called out, they then regularly overlay each other, this is especially annoying when you have custom recorded actions that are longer than a few words, i.e - a recorded combo, I really want to give this app 5*, Please fix this issue and i will give 5* Other than that issue, absolute fantastic app, really well designed, very happy with this app, i don't think anything needs changing in the way the app is laid out, Perfect for training on my own, can basically coach myself with the ability to record custom actions, Thank you for giving us this app :).Version: 7.2

Great appThis app is very well implemented. You can set up a series of intervals and within each interval set up actions to take place at random intervals. And even better you can download other peoples timers for free. I got some great workouts this way and it made it easier for me to set up my own by modifying premade ones. The only thing I could ask for is more prade workouts to download especially total body ones. I think there are tons of crossfit and 300 style workouts that this app could totally be used for and it would be just prrfect if they were preloaded or available for download..Version: 0

Top ClassDon't even bother with any other gym timer apps, even the free ones... this one does it all. I use it everyday. You can do your boxing rounds, or a quick tabata set. or your own circuit training set. I'm not normally this gushing but I can't praise it enough...Marvellous.Version: 0

Needs to connect too Apple MusicGreat app. Needs to connect to Apple Music. Also needs to fix the orientation from upright to side.Version: 7.5

Best timer/trainer.I have bought and tried other timers. This is the best one so far. Plays in the background while I listen to music. My only gripe would be.....I want more boxing workouts (with punches, rather than #'s)..Version: 5.3

Very GoodNo real faults although I only use the boxing rounds. These can be varied in length to suit the individual. I do 12x3 minute rounds with 45 second breaks in between and by the end I'm soaked in sweat. Only suggestions would be round numbers at start of each round and also maybe the ability to specify attack rounds to up the intensity... If you have access to a punch bag this is an excellent purchase..Version: 5.5.2

Best out there15 years later, it is still the best interval trainer out there. Timer groups, Timers, intervals, and activities within them means this is the most versatile app of its kind. It needs Apple Watch support and text to speech (although the record voice works as a a great alternative). But this app should not have been abandoned. It’s the gold standard..Version: 7.5

Good APPWhen I first got this I was apprehensive as to what it would bring. However having used it a couple of times now I like it. Its good at keeping the mometum up on the bag..Version: 0

Well done.Please add Apple Watch functionality. It would be very useful to have my watch vibrate/tap when it is time to change intervals..Version: 7.3.1

Best trainer!This is the perfect trainer! You don't have to think you just throw the punch he yells out. I do wish they would add pre programed kicks! please . but if I had a mic I could program them myself!.Version: 0

Huge update from "rounds" timer, incredible value, one minor glitch.So I bought rounds and used it for a year. I believe it was made by the same company. it had it's problems like, you couldn't pause just the music and it took me a really long time to program excersize routines because you couldn't mix "timer groups" like you can here. Even so it was a great value at $4 instead of an expensive physical timer for a hundred dollars or so. This app, Ultra Trainer, works way better! all other problems I had are pretty much gone. its wonderful to be able to save my own voice recordings for alarms. That way when in my work out it's time to move on to say, pushups, I hear my voice say to myself "pushups" or "you have five seconds left" or whatever I want. This is great because I listen to the evening news podcast from the previous night while I work out outside in the morning at the park. The glitch: so there is this cool funtion where you can add actions inside of an interval that can be "random" or run in the order of "as listed." this way I can program it to say "run hard" for a random amount of time and "run easy" for a random amount of time, and so on. what great is that it's within an interval! The glitch is that the "as listed" option in these actions doesnt work properly. For whatever reason it mixes up the order. It does so consistantly, but it doesn't do it from the top action down to the bottom action, at least not when the interval is, lets say, the the third interval. Minor glitch, but it took me 20minutes to figure out why my stretches were all mixed up. Anyway, great app, and I'm looking forward to downloading and sharing some timer programs with others on the "timer exchange" community that you can access and upload/download to inside the app. Pretty great for $4!.Version: 5.3

Amazing appTried em all , tgis is all in 1!.Version: 5.2

Brilliant Concept......and even better execution. Insanely versatile and modifiable, this app is one of the smartest buys I've made. The Random Action Function alone sets it apart from every other timer out there..Version: 0

VersatileDoes everything you need in a timer and then some. The random intervals and actions are great for martial arts striking and reaction work. Great!.Version: 0
