SmartWOD Timer - WOD Timer Reviews

I’ve tried several different tabata/wod timers, and even bought the pro version of one, and this is hands down the best I’ve used (and it’s free)! It literally does everything I wish a timer did (multiple AMRAPS with rest in between, tabata, EMOM of varying durations) and I see options for stuff I haven’t even tried yet. The interface is clear and easy to use, and the display during the workout is beautiful. The ads are unobtrusive, but I’m going to go see if there is an upgrade to buy because it’s so good someone deserves money for this thing.

I’ve purchased several CrossFit workout timer applications over the past several years. This one is by far, hands-down, the best one I’ve used yet. Super easy to program all of your WODs. Even with complex timing segments, you can customize each work out with the appropriate timers to get what you need.

I paid the money to purchase SmartWODTimer after using it for several months. It was well worth it and the programmers deserve every penny they get. I once made a suggestion to the programmers and they actually implemented it into the next update. Thank you

I really like SmartWODTimer. There are so many junk apps out there that just have really awful interfaces, including timers and Tabata. This is clean. It’s easy to use and does what I want.

I use this to practice my martial arts strikes in sequence and it does that fabulously. Love the mid-workout reminder. One enhancement request would be to store logs in iCloud for use and synchronization across devices.

I threw away the other apps I didn’t like and because I want ro support conscientious and serious developers, I bought the lifetime premium. Thanks for doing a great job!

This timer is great for any of your functional fitness needs. It has all the modes you could ask for and the are configurable to whatever regular time domains you might need. It also saves your data if you need to pull it up afterwards. One thing I wish were different is the dialogue box that opens when you exit a running clock - other wording than “giving up” would be appreciated. A simple “are you sure?” would suffice.

My gym closed last week due to the corona virus outbreak. I’ll admit I was feeling lost. Home workouts never really did it for me no matter how many cool accessories I could load up in my home “gym”. Then I found what was missing. In addition to my feel is gym goers I was missing the race to beat the clock. Look no further. SmartWODTimer does it all. Amrap? Yes. Tabata? Sure freaking does! And it even counts it down for you so you aren’t staring at your phone like an idiot.

I have lost 7 pounds from SmartWODTimer and here is a tip if you are trying to loose weight. So first if someone asks you if you want unhealthy food you just shake your head right to the left 3 times. And here’s another tip too. So let’s ay that you are walking up to some pretty unhealthy food you walk up to it then you turn around and walk. Simple as that! Hope these tips helped you!💪🤪🙏😂

Did an AMRAP at home and needed something for my 15 min countdown. Downloaded this as it was the first thing to pop up. Love the features of the different types of timers and the 10 second countdown with the beeps. Loved loved loved the round tracker with the time differences. I hate math so figuring out each round length usually gives me a headache but this does it all for you!! Then it also logs your wods. Thank you! Telling my whole gym about SmartWODTimer.

I had been looking for a tabata app for a while when after some research, I chose this one because it seemed to have the most consistent reviews. So glad I made this choice. I’ve used it a few times and so far, it’s worked perfectly. The developper also seems to be very responsive, which I like. Great app and very easy to use. I highly recommend it.

This is by far the best timer ever. It has so much flexibility in creating different workouts with rest periods and multiple sections. And countdowns and keeping track of rounds. I wish I could have a clock that does the same thing. Or is there a way to display my timers from my phone screen to a smart TV?I just want to see it bigger because it is so awesome

I was trying to do some at home workouts. Other timer apps said they were easy, but it was so hard to change between AMRAP, tabata and multiple rounds with a rest in between. This one has different timers for each and lets you just enter in whatever you need to change it. So straightforward!

I have been using this timer for just over two years now. Every timer I used before always had something I didn’t love about it, was missing something or it took too long to set up a workout. I can set any workout up in about 5 sec and be ready to move. This is literally the only timer I will ever need! Great work!

This application has gone through a tremendous makeover in the past 7 month! The amount of the new practical and useful features has expanded dramatically!

After using the WOD for over a year, I decided to go Lifetime, simply because of the added advantages that come with the subscription.

Having the Log, storing the presets, and creating my own- were some of the “seductions” that played the roles!

Fortunately, I have NEVER experienced any stability issues/ crashes with SmartWODTimer .

The responsiveness from the developers has always been Top Notch!
I only hope, they will never abandon their masterpiece!
I hope the upcoming updates will enhance the existing beauty!

To the Developers: Exceptionally well done! Bravo!!

This timer is exactly what I wish our gym had on the wall. It is versatile, meaning you can program different AMRAP and rest periods within the same WOD. You are not stuck with only one option for time worked and one option for time rested. (E.g. I could program one round of 8:00, then rest 3:00, then do a second round of 5:00)

This is a great app and I’m glad to have it. But dang if they don’t make it hard to put the timer up on the screen AND have a second app open.

I keep my WODs in Notes while screen sharing to my gym TV.

And while I can have the note open in slide-over, it covers part of the timer. Since this doesn’t support split screen apps, I’m constantly fidgeting with where the note with my WOD is and uncovering the buttons and sliders in this timer app.

Love SmartWODTimer ! Use it all the time. Only thing I'm missing is an integration with apple watch. Would be especially helpful for workouts that include running. You set the timer and program on your phone and the clock runs with you mirrored on the watch. You can start stop from watch. That would be awesome!

The ability to customize workouts is AMAZING! For example, you can build a workout with multiple different-length AMRAPs, and have different rest periods between each AMRAP. SmartWODTimer also had a built-in counter to keep track of your rounds! On top of that, the interface is smooth, beautiful, and easy to use.

So working out at home has been the new norm for now. I was using a kitchen timer and it’s just okay. SmartWODTimer has everything you could possible want and need. It’s very user friendly and allows adjustments that make your workout sequence go flawlessly. Highly recommend

Easy to use and save preset timers for lifting and workouts. Countdown, mid-workout and ending prompts without having to keep an eye on the phone. Workout log history easily tracks past workouts and progress. One thing is workout log needs to be saved to a file if phone is ever lost.

I freaking love SmartWODTimer! During this time, Coronavirus to be exact, I have been working out at home and I use this so much! The only thing I wish you could add is what equipment I used in my workout and what I was going to do for the WOD. But either way it is amazing and I recommend if you just want to work out at home instead of a gym.

During this pandemic with no gym this has been a life saver! I have been able to stick with The Lifestyle way with Ashley Koloszsvary!! Using this for Amraps and Emoms has been great. I do not have to look down at my watch. It beeps for you and gives you half way announcement plus 10 second countdown. It also plays while playing music from another app. Thank you!!

Love this timer for all my workout needs. I do WODs on my own at the gym and this is a perfect app/timer to stay on track. It works through my music and headphones so it talks you through it letting you know when to start, half way points and when you’re done. Highly recommend! Never had any problems. Very easy to use.

So far I really like SmartWODTimer. I can use it when I don’t make it to the CrossFit gym to create my own workouts. No more hitting the timer and rushing to get back into position to start my set. I wish it had a interval timer or tracker but really I am happy with the apps options.
I hope it becomes capable with Apple Watch soon.

I love the functionality of the timers and the way you can reconfigure the Tabata and EMOM times. I also love logging my workouts in the included workout log.
The reason I didn’t go 5 stars is that you can only back up your workouts with the paid subscription. SmartWODTimer crashed one time and I ended up losing 6 months of past workout information. That was worth atleast 2 stars on my book.

SmartWODTimer is fantastic for a quick go to and even an extensive workout plan, I only ask that you PLEASE make a compatible version for the Apple Watch. I love going to SmartWODTimer but I’m lazy and don’t bring my phone with me for physical training in the morning and would love to be able to utilize SmartWODTimer right from my wrist. Otherwise, this is great, keep it up!

I have tried quite a few timers, and SmartWOD is the best of them. Both types of basic timing (count down and count up, each with a lap/round counter). The “tabata” timer is pre-configured for standard tabata, but you can modify it for any kind of HITT. Graphics are clean, readable and look good. SmartWOD is all you need! Thank you!

I enjoy SmartWODTimer . It’s great that you can play your music in the background while you work out and can still hear the timer. It would be a great addition if there were audio prompts to motivate and push you towards the end. It would be a cool motivator or addition to SmartWODTimer .

Aa lot of other free workout timer will I integrate ads which is to be expected. However, this one has done it in less distraction way. I am still testing it, if everything works out, I will be looking into buying the premium version.

Have been using other apps and sometimes I put in the wrong number of rounds etc. this takes out all the guess work. Thanks for making my life so much easier.

Others have spoken about the functionality of the timers. Let me add my favorite aspect of SmartWODTimer is it allows my music to keep playing while SmartWODTimer is running. Simply but essential feature that other timer apps don’t have.

In the middle of a workout, my app crashes occasionally. First time, thought it was my fault. Second time, wasn’t sure if it did it again. Third, definitely crashed. Also, freezes up a lot.

It’s a glorified clock. How does it crash and freeze? Do you realize how disheartening and frustrating it is for your timer to shut off in the middle of a workout? You continue working, but you lose track of counts, intervals, and most importantly, YOUR TIME.

Smart WOD makes my workouts so much more efficient and fun! I don’t have to mess with my clock anymore during my workout. The Smart WOD timer tells me when to start and stop and I can focus on working out hard and pushing myself! Great app!!! 5 stars!!!

You don’t even have to do CrossFit to benefit from SmartWODTimer. It can increase your training density, sharpen your focus, and keep you on track so that you never waste a second in the gym. Definitely recommend!
