An interval timer for hangboard training

Focus on your hangs.
Let sound guide your workout.

Set your hang and rest intervals. Add a heads-up before the next hang so you have time to chalk up and get ready, without watching your phone.

Built for your session

Your session, set up your way.

  1. Set up intervals and cues

    Choose how long to hang and rest, then set your reps and sets. Add beeps or voice countdowns for each phase, including a reminder to chalk up before your next hang.

  2. Keep your music playing

    Hear cues alongside your music. Turn on Lower Other Audio to briefly lower the music volume when a cue plays.

  3. Keep your setup for next time

    Save your intervals and cues as a named workout. Organize timers by grip or routine so they’re easy to find for your next session.

Hangboard timer questions

Before the first hang.

Timing details, sound options, and saved sessions.

Can I set different sound cues for hangs and recovery?

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.

How do I setup a cue for chalking up?

Add a Single cue to your Rest or Between Sets phase, set it to 30 seconds remaining, and choose Voice. You’ll hear “30” as your reminder to chalk up and get ready for the next hang. Adjust the timing to give yourself as much notice as you need.

Will cues work with my screen locked or music playing?

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.

Can I save timers for different grips or protocols?

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.
