J Walk: Japanese Walking

Keep listening to your music or podcast, phone in your pocket — J Walk still tells you when to switch pace, out loud. It's a simple companion for Japanese interval walking: the "3-3" method of alternating three minutes of brisk walking with three minutes of easy walking. Press Start and walk. J Walk runs a 30-minute session split into ten 3-minute blocks and plays a clear audio cue at every switch, so you always know whether to speed up or ease off. No need to watch the screen or count minutes yourself. The cues come through your audio session — not a notification — so they play: • when your phone is in your pocket or bag • when the screen is locked • when your phone is on silent • through your headphones, ducking your music or podcast just for the cue A live distance readout shows how far you've walked, and the timer keeps perfect time even after your screen locks, because it follows the real clock rather than a counter that can drift in the background. What you get: • A guided 30-minute fast/slow interval walk • An out-loud cue at every 3-minute switch • Fast / Slow on-screen labels and a big countdown • Live walking distance • Cues that work locked, pocketed, and on silent J Walk is a free labor of love. There are no accounts, no ads, and no tracking — your location is used only on your device to keep the cues firing while you walk, and is never sold or shared. If the app helps your walks, you can leave an optional tip from the Support link; tipping is never required and unlocks nothing. J Walk is a walking companion, not a medical device, and makes no health claims. As with any exercise, check with your doctor if you have concerns.
