Hangboard & fingerboard timer for iPhone
Hear when a hang is ending and when the next one is about to start. Customize countdowns and recovery warnings for repeaters, max hangs, and feet-on fingerboard sessions.
From protocol to timer
The cards use Sound Cue’s field names. Set the timing before you get on the board, then choose the audio you want to follow.
Use Work for one effort, Rest for recovery between efforts, and Reps for the number in a block. Sets repeats the block. All sets share the same durations and cues; you choose any grip changes yourself.
Between Sets replaces Rest after the last hang in a block—it is not added on top. With Between Sets = 3:00, the next block starts three minutes after that hang ends. For a single block, use Sets = 1.
Set cues in seconds remaining: Single cue for one warning, Countdown for each second through 1, or Advanced for repeating patterns. Add up to five sequences per phase. For a signal at the start and end of each hang, enable phase-change beeps in Workout alerts.
Hangboard & climbing intervals
Match one of these timings to your training plan. Each starts with 10 seconds to get into position; complete your warm-up first.
Six hangs per block, with three-minute recovery between blocks. This example uses three blocks; choose the block count and grips from your plan.
Try these cuesWork: beeps at 3, 2, and 1 seconds remaining. Between Sets: a spoken “10” with 10 seconds left to prepare for the next block.
Six ten-second hangs with two minutes of recovery between efforts, following Lattice’s timing. Your strength-training plan determines the load and edge.
Try these cuesWork: beeps at 3, 2, and 1 seconds remaining. Rest: a spoken “30” at 30 seconds remaining to leave time to chalk, then a separate 3–2–1 beep countdown.
Twenty low-intensity efforts using 10/20 timing. Keep your feet on the floor and follow your grip plan; this timer does not guide grip changes.
Try these cuesWork: a single beep at 5 seconds remaining to mark halfway. Rest: a spoken 3–2–1 countdown before the next effort.
These are timing examples, not complete training plans. Choose load, edge, grip, and frequency with qualified guidance; stop if you feel pain. Cue sequences are examples you can customize.
Hangboard timer questions
Timing details, sound options, and saved sessions.
Yes. Customize cues for Work, Rest, and Between Sets separately. Use beeps during the final seconds of a hang, then a spoken warning during recovery so you have time to chalk up and prepare.
Timed voice cues speak remaining numbers, such as “10.” Phase-change voice announces fixed names such as “Work,” “Rest,” and “Between Sets.” It does not call out grip names or custom “hang” and “release” commands. Recorded and imported sounds are not supported; choose beeps for nonverbal signals.
Yes. An active workout is designed to keep timing and playing cues with your iPhone locked or Sound Cue in the background. Cues can play alongside music; Lower Other Audio can briefly reduce its volume while a cue plays.
Yes. Name and group separate workouts by grip or protocol. These are saved timers, not an automatically chained sequence of grip changes. The free library holds five workouts, including three starters; a one-time purchase expands it to 100, with no subscription.
