Interval Timer: BeepWatch

I just wanted a simple stopwatch to track my rest time and an alert to start my next set. I would love to have larger buttons like two big circles for lap and pause or restart. It would also be nice to have some kind of counter to show how many sets I have completed. But overall, I really love this app. ***Update*** What a great improvement from the last version, at some point I was afraid of the app losing support but I was proven wrong. I truly believe the developer read the email I sent him long ago, because now the app does everything I wanted and I had been looking for an app like this for a long time and even better. My previous timers got deleted but it was not a big deal because with the app now I was able to set the time for my rest and how many rounds I needed which made it easy to set up the timers again.

Update: I took some time and eventually figured it out. It’s really still a great app. I use it for many things, but my cold showers are where it really shines. Instead of trying to endure 2 minutes, I calmly count the 30 second alerts until I’ve reached 2 minutes. (Old review): I loved the BeepWatch! I paid for no ads and it was very reasonable. But I was just “grandfathered-in” to BeepWatch pro and now the timers I created are gone and creating new timers is ridiculously complicated. Why would you do this? Can you un- “grandfather“ me? I want my old BeepWatch back.

The watch itself functions well. The beep can get annoying, but I think that is mostly because I use it while listening to other apps and it blares kind of loud. However, early on I purchased the pro version through the app, but it has never taken effect. I sent a message to the developer through the app and never heard back and no solution presented itself. Even attempting to restore purchases, or purchasing again, I get a message saying I’ve already purchased it and it will be restored automatically for free... but the. I bring the app back up, because it is playing in the background for my purposes, and have to wait through ads every time before I can close them, close the option to buy (again) the pro version to get rid of ads, and then I can get to stopping the timer. This might be okay with other apps, but not a stopwatch timer... time counts... it’s kind of the point.
