About Vault Timer
Interval training deserves better. Vault Timer is a workout timer for people who train seriously: HIIT, Tabata, EMOM, AMRAP, boxing, BJJ and strength work. Big digits, clear sounds, no clutter. IT COUNTS YOUR REPS Set a work phase by reps instead of seconds, say 12 reps at 30 BPM, and Vault Timer paces every rep with a metronome and a spoken count, with the rep number big on screen. Ready-made 5×5, Hypertrophy and Rep Burn presets get you started. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE GYM Boxing rounds open and close with a bell, BJJ rounds with a buzzer, just like the clock on the wall. Everything else gets a spoken 3-2-1 countdown and voice cues. READ IT FROM ACROSS THE ROOM Turn your phone sideways for landscape "gym TV" mode: huge, high-contrast digits you can see mid-set. FEATURES • Quick-start presets: HIIT, Tabata, EMOM, AMRAP, Fat Burn, Strength, Boxing, BJJ, 5×5, Hypertrophy and Rep Burn • Workout Builder for your own circuits • 50-movement exercise library, including 20 dumbbell exercises • A form guide on every exercise: what it works, how to do it, and a cue to keep in mind • Accurate in the background: lock your phone or take a call and it comes back showing the right time • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island • Haptics on every transition, and keep-awake so the screen never goes dark mid-set • Saves your workouts to Apple Health • Workout history, streaks and a home-screen streak widget • Text that scales with your iOS text size FREE, OR PRO FOR ONE PRICE Every quick-start preset and two custom workouts are free, with no ads and no account. One purchase unlocks Vault Timer Pro for good: unlimited custom workouts, Apple Watch sync, a choice of voice coaches and colour-coded phase backgrounds. No subscription, ever. Vault Timer. Interval training, perfected.
What’s new
Version 1.4 · Updated October 14, 2026
Workouts by reps. Set a work phase as a number of reps at a tempo, say 12 reps at 30 BPM, and Vault Timer works out the time, paces every rep with the metronome and counts it out loud. The rep count is the big number on screen as you go, and it stays right if you lock your phone mid-set. Three new quick-start presets use it: 5×5, Hypertrophy and Rep Burn. Twenty new dumbbell exercises (rows, presses, curls, carries and a full set of rear-delt and rotator-cuff work) in their own Dumbbell category in the Workout Builder. Every exercise now has a form guide. Tap the ⓘ next to any movement to see what it works, how to do it properly, and a short cue to keep in mind. Landscape mode: turn your phone sideways during any workout for a big, high-contrast display you can read from across the gym. Boxing and BJJ now sound like the real thing: a bell or buzzer on every round boundary, including round one. The timer is now accurate to the clock. Leave the app, lock your phone or take a call, and it comes back showing exactly the right time. On iPad the timer now fills the screen, and the Workout Builder shows each exercise's plan at a glance. Accessibility: text scales with your iOS text size setting, and VoiceOver labels have been added throughout.
