- Change the workout type to "walking" to minimise impact on Move and Exercise rings in Activity app.
- Remove SocialKarama banner from the bottom. (Nobody uses that app anyway).
Dear users! I apologise for missing for quite a long time. I was working on another project. Now I finally returned to Periodic Timer.
I received many reports from you about the problem when the timer writes data to Health and Activity apps as if you were exercising. I spend a lot of time trying to find a way to fix it, but it seems to be impossible. We need the Workout Mode to allow Periodic Timer to run in the background, Health records all this data automatically when and the Workout Mode is on. And the data can't be deleted because apps can only write to Health.

Raffikio,
The iwatch version has a bad glitch
I like having this on my iwatch, however the app on the watch has a glitch and doesn’t do any timers over 59 minutes. If I place anything above that, it sticks to 59 minutes. I tried emailing the developer and no response or fix after a while. I like the app, but for this glaring glitch I have to rate lower.
600ccbugslayer,
Helps with focus & workout
I had some trouble at first getting notifications when the screen locked but, I found out I had to allow persistent banner notifications and allow it in dnd. It works now with screen lock.
This helps me keep pace with my workouts, and i set focus reminders to keep on task. I even use custom recording reminders. I like that I can remind every few seconds.
This is really useful!

Your App saved my eye
I have had Ramsay Hunt Syndrome (Bell’s Palsy plus ear shingles) since February, and my eye was “hinged” open until recently, and I bought this $1.99 app, and it alerts me on my iWatch or iPhone to blink every 57 seconds, over and over, and this product helped me regain the ability to blink naturally. Thank you from a a guy that can naturally blink again. Go without blinking for 2 minutes and see what I mean. It gets dry. Blinking saves the day. I am Hank Hurst, and I was not paid a red cent to make this review.
meyoufools,
Simply just works!
Hi Vlad, wanted to thank you for this app. It works perfectly in the background with any app I’m working on and even when I close iPad it’s still there reminding me if I want it to. I was using free version which is fine but upgraded so I could support your work, didn’t need the customization but it may be useful to play with in the future. $1.99 is very reasonable for such a useful app, thanks!

Simple. Beautiful. Functional.
This app is perfect. Serves it’s purpose well. I use this to help build habits that require action every 10mim for example. I put my phone in my pocket and set timer to vibrate. One suggestion is to have the ability to control the duration of the vibration. Often I’ll end up missing a vibration because of its short duration.
olylifternoob,
Simple mindfulness reminders
Love this app - most popular meditation apps have features that send a reminder at a scheduled time each day to meditate. With this app, I can be reminded throughout my day every hour, every half hour, etc, to simply be mindful of the present moment experience without judgment.

Perfect for my job
When I first got this app it worked great but now after 63 reps the timer stops going off. Also is there a way to turn the Apple Watch function off? I don’t always feel the vibration and much prefer the sound through my headphones so I don’t over water any of the 1000 plants I take care of at work.
DC Portland,
Loved it but no longer opens!!
This app was exactly what I was looking for. Something that I could set to discreetly give me a reminder every 20 minutes to do an eye exercise. It was perfect. I laid off the exercises for a few days and went back to it and it no longer opens at all. Deleted and reloaded, turned phone off and back on. Still no success. Doesn't do anything upon opening and immediately closes. Very disappointed because as I said it was very simple and exactly what I was looking for.

Periodic Timer +
App indicates your mp3 file can be used for alert.
However, the purchased version does not have that option. Do not purchase if you expect to use your mp3 files for alerts. I will give 4 stars if App author corrects this error.

Excellent timer app
I really like this app, but I wish that it still showed the number of laps completed and then time on current lap instead of the total time, eg
2x 0:15 instead of 4:15 (for 2:00 intervals)
2x 0:15 instead of 4:15 (for 2:00 intervals)
