rTimer is an easy-to-use interval training application for iPhone and iPod Touch. rTimer pauses your music, and plays interval change sounds to notify that your interval has switched.

What is Interval Training?

Interval Training is a form of exercise where you alternate between high and low intensity activity for set periods of time. You can use interval training to help train for long distance running.

Instructions

You can easily configure a given interval by touching the interval's description on the main screen. From there you will be able to configure the title, time, background color, and sound for the selected interval.

When you are ready to start your interval training, simply select the "Start Timer" button on the home screen.

Features

* Customizable interval labels, sounds, background colors, and times.
* Instant audio status alerts for interval time left and total time elapsed are right at your finger tips by tapping or double tapping the screen.
* Ipod music is paused when interval sounds and status alerts play, so you never miss an interval switch.
* More than 20 interval sounds to choose from, including chimes, beeps, short song clips, and spoken words such as "Run".
