The workout side
Kronos writes one for you in seconds, checked against a trainer’s standard.
Tell it your goal, your gear and your time. It writes the session for the slots on your timer, and runs it.
Built to a personal trainer’s standard.
Every session is checked before it reaches you, and most are ready in about five seconds.

How the free interval timers compare
Our footer reads: time is the unit.
The timer is the literal expression of that. Charging for it would be charging for the unit. So we don’t.
iOS & Android
Free interval timer. Always.
iPhone and Android. No account. No catch.
