About DeadHangBuddy: Hang Timer
DeadHangBuddy is your dead hang timer with a 30-day plan. You hang from your pull-up bar, the app times you, gives a signal every 10 seconds and helps you build your hang time and grip strength step by step. Ape Bongo keeps you company: with every new personal best, his arms grow longer.
The app has no ads, no account and no subscription. All your data stays on your phone.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Starting test: hang for as long as it feels good. That sets your level, from "Warm-up" to "Endurance", and suggests a goal.
2. 30-day plan: test days, training days and rest days. Set length, number of sets and rest times are tailored to you and adapt to your feedback (easy, just right, hard).
3. Hanging: you get a get-ready countdown, then a beep every 10 seconds, with optional voice announcements of your time. Reach your target and you hear a special signal. To stop, just tap anywhere on the screen, no free hand needed.
4. Result and history: personal best, training days and a chart of your progress. You are only ever compared with your own history, never with other people.
WHAT YOU GET
• Dead hang timer for your bar at home, in the park or at the gym
• Timing to a tenth of a second, signals even while music plays (the music just gets quieter for a moment)
• Screen stays on while you hang
• Voice announcements, sounds and vibration can each be switched off
• Free hang or plan, adjustable rest between sets
• Optional reminders that only come on training days
• Share image with your best time in feed or story format
• English and German, works offline
BONGO AND THE BANANAS
Bongo hangs from the bar and his arms show your progress: the closer you get to your goal, the longer they grow. You collect a banana for every training day and a golden banana for every milestone (10, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 90 seconds). Nothing is ever taken away: rest days and missed days cost you nothing.
ALSO FOR BEGINNERS AND A SLOW START
If a free hang isn't possible yet, you start supported: your feet stay on a chair or on the floor. Your target adapts to your age group and starting test and can be changed at any time. If you report pain or tingling after a session, the plan pauses and only continues once you confirm.
WHO IS IT FOR?
For everyone who wants to train their grip strength: calisthenics, pull-up preparation, climbing, bouldering or just a quick hang workout in between. All you need is a sturdy bar.
SAFETY
Before you start there is a short safety check. Make sure the bar is securely mounted, land safely when you let go and keep breathing normally. Stop right away if you feel pain, tingling or numbness. The app is a training helper, not a medical device, and does not replace medical advice.
