Ben’s Timer

Ben's Timer is a simple interval timer for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch – no ads, no account, no tracking. Set up work, rest, rounds and sets in seconds, then train right on your Apple Watch: a big countdown, a colored progress ring and noticeable haptics on your wrist – even with your wrist down. Or turn your iPhone or iPad sideways: the remaining time fills the screen and is easy to read from a few meters away. FEATURES • Fully adjustable: get ready, warm-up, work, rest, rounds, sets, set rest, cool-down • Large round counter, countdown for the last seconds and an optional end-of-round warning (e.g. 10 s in boxing) • Elapsed and remaining total time at a glance • Signals per phase: sound and countdown adjustable for each phase • Phase names that match your sport (“Fight”, “Relaxation”, “Exercise” …) – or your own, like “Sparring” • Sounds: real recordings of a boxing bell, gong, wind chimes and singing bowl, synthesized tones or vibration only • 14 themes, e.g. Zen, Dojo, Neon, Ocean, Retro, High Contrast or Night Vision (red on black) – per preset • Animated stick figure for your sport during the work phase – with a rope for jump rope, a bike for indoor cycling and a rowing machine for rowing • Ready-made presets: Tabata-style intervals (20/10), HIIT 40/20, Yoga final relaxation, Kumite, Boxing, Mobility, Run & Walk, Stretching / Physio, Norwegian 4×4, Jump Rope, Indoor Cycling, Rowing • Start now without the get-ready phase • iPad: presets and editor side by side, full-screen timer in any window size • Apple Watch: runs on its own, shows phase, round and heart rate; tap the center to pause, end on a separate page to avoid accidental taps • iPhone and Apple Watch together: one workout, controllable on both devices • Apple Health: saves workouts with the matching workout type, e.g. jump rope, indoor cycling or rowing (can be turned off) • English, German, Spanish and French PRIVACY Your presets stay on your devices.
