UltraTrainer App Description & Overview

What is ultratrainer app? Description

UltraTrainer is your virtual coach, trainer, and training partner. It is a revolutionary timer which was not available previously on any mobile device.

There are two types of intervals which can be mixed in UltraTrainer:
- Traditional Intervals
- Randomized Action Intervals

In a traditional interval, the interval is a specified duration. This is what you would normally expect from an interval timer. Routines such as Tabata, HIIT, etc, are incredibly easy to setup and modify.

The Randomized Action Intervals is where UltraTrainer truly breaks new ground. UltraTrainer will call out Actions for you to perform in random order AND at random times that you control.

For example, if you are shadow boxing or hitting the heavy bag, you would normally think of a combination of punches and throw them. Instead of consciously coming up with the combination, UltraTrainer can tell you what punches to throw. It can call out 'JAB!', then a second later 'JAB CROSS!', then a second and a half later, 'CROSS HOOK!', until the interval ends.

This is how UltraTrainer can be your virtual coach/trainer/training-partner: you can not train reactionary reflexes without somebody or something telling you what to do in random order and at random times.

Martial artists can work on reflexes by creating timers that randomize movement ("Forward!", "Backwards!") and actions ("Sprawl!").

Cyclists can simulate mountain road courses by setting up intervals that randomize pedaling speed.

Crossfit athletes make HEAVY use of timers for quick high-intensity workouts. The sample timer "Fight Gone Horribly Wrong" is based on "Fight Gone Bad" but with a twist. Each of the 5 stations is called out in random order and the duration at each station is randomized between 20 seconds and 1 minute. The result? A franticly paced workout because you never REALLY know when the next station will be called out so you have to try to completely exert yourself at the current station.

For a complete workout, you can set up a Timer Group which will play individual timers back to back. Start out with your favorite Warm Up timer, then run through your favorite Training timer, and end with a Stretching timer. UltraTrainer will run you through your full workout automatically.

Exclusive to our products, users can browse the Timer Exchange, a community where people freely exchange timers. Search, browse, and download timers that other users have uploaded. If you want, you can upload your own timers to share with others.

You can also trade timers directly with a friend using E-mail, or the clipboard to transfer them other ways.

UltraTrainer can be used for martial arts, mma, boxing, bjj, circuit training, interval training (Tabata, HIIT), Crossfit, yoga, meditation, cycling, running / sprinting, swimming, time-management, multi-stage recipes for cooking, weight lifting, stretching, and anything else you might be able to think of. As you can see, UltraTrainer can be used in all sorts of situations.

Features in UltraTrainer:
- Timer Exchange community
- Runs in the background

Great app for workouts but developer appears to have stopped updating it. I love this app. It's one of my top apps I use for my training and workouts. But it would seem the app is no longer receiving updates. It has some bugs in it now that I would love to see fixed but isn't getting done. Because of that, I can only give 4 star rating even though this is a 5 star app

Best timer/trainer.. I have bought and tried other timers. This is the best one so far. Plays in the background while I listen to music. My only gripe would be.....I want more boxing workouts (with punches, rather than #'s).

Versatile. Does everything you need in a timer and then some. The random intervals and actions are great for martial arts striking and reaction work. Great!

Great app. This app is very well implemented. You can set up a series of intervals and within each interval set up actions to take place at random intervals. And even better you can download other peoples timers for free. I got some great workouts this way and it made it easier for me to set up my own by modifying premade ones. The only thing I could ask for is more prade workouts to download especially total body ones. I think there are tons of crossfit and 300 style workouts that this app could totally be used for and it would be just prrfect if they were preloaded or available for download.

Much better than I expected. I haven't tried any of the other timers out there but I was VERY impressed with this one's functionality. Entering in the exercises is a bit of a pain, but once they're in there customizing routines is easy. At $3 I felt I got a lot more than I paid for. Update: being able to share programs across devices via wireless connection...very cool guys, thanks. Still using this app after well-over a year. I have about 30 different fitness programs.

Crashes. I got this app to use for my cycling intervals on my indoor trainer. I'm giving it two stars because when it works it's nice and helpful, BUT........this app crashes a lot. I purchased the app because the new version said they fixed the crash. Hmmm, not really. So don't purchase until you see four to five stars. Hopefully another update will come out and it will be fixed. Oh well, my 2.99$ just bought a sitting app on my iPad.

Best out there. 15 years later, it is still the best interval trainer out there. Timer groups, Timers, intervals, and activities within them means this is the most versatile app of its kind. It needs Apple Watch support and text to speech (although the record voice works as a a great alternative). But this app should not have been abandoned. It’s the gold standard.

Current version Does fix the bugs mentioned in the review. This was a very useful app until a few updates ago. Now the sound is unreliable by often not playing after 15 min or so. Why don't you just role back the updates since so many people are complaining about ultratrainer and ultratimer not working anymore. The slightly newer interface didn't add much. Update: 5.3 does fix it! Thank you. Now this app rocks.

Nearly perfect. Works great - the boxing action sounds really help mix up my heavy bag workouts, and setting up a sprint timer for HIIT was easy. I suggest making deleting actions, intervals, etc., more intuitive. Swiping to delete is common in apps, but as a shortcut. A delete button would be nice.

No longer works with iOS 6. This is a great app when it works. No longer works with iOS 6. Please fix to bring that rating back up.

Error when downloading. Won't open the timer archive

I used it everyday now it's destroyed. I had 4 different routines programmed into it. My only complaint was that I was not able to upload a picture like I did on previous versions .The timer worked perfectly . Now it crashes and has multiple glitches . I also had Ultimate Timer, it's messed up too. The latest positive review in March 2015 is a fake. Their apps are not working anymore.

Good idea but buggy. Good idea but buggy. For example whenever I change the minimum or maximum duration of a workout (duration of "actions" under an "interval") the duration gets set to zero regardless of what I choose.

Nothing like description. I must have gotten a bum download. It does nothing as described. Only a half-dozen workouts, most boxing/mma related. Intervals are announced with a tone but no verbal so you have to look at screen to see what's up which defeats purpose. Instructions on how to use are minimal. don't know where glowing reviews are coming from. Even if I'm missing something there should be help readily available that guides you through it. don't do it.

Best Interval Timer - I bought them all. This is the best one on the market. We've used this for basic interval timing and complex multiphase fitness programs. Nothing comes close this app. They make it simple to setup complex sequences. We also like the easy way to share timers with other coaches - just select the timers you want to share, then email them for easy import. The only thing I'd like is to see an integrated heart beat monitor feature like one of the other products has. But as a flexible, well crafted interval timer, this one is the one we always use.

Like it a lot but...... Love the concept of this app bit having major issue with the music dimming at times for an entire interval, then blasting on the next. Just deleted & reinstalled - hoping it fixes the issue!

Awesome for crossfit. Especially love the timer exchange which has every potential canned sequence I could ever want.

Crashes. Can’t get app to work. Crashes every time I try to record in action audio files. Haven’t gotten farther than that as that is something I need this to do for the results I want. Tried to email customer support and no response.

Great training program. Great idea, still buggy though. Music volume control is more random than setting a random interval in the software. Sometimes it works...... Would have given 4 or 5 stars if the dev would even acknowledge an email.....

Doesn't work with iPhone 6 or iPad Air. I loved this app! Used it for all my training & teaching classes but now it won't work on my new devices. Please fix it!

Update makes it functional for me again. Added back support for OS3.x. I am again a happy camper, thanks!

Great App for fitness. This is an awesome app with lots of flexiblity.

Great app. Needs a stopwatch with a delayed timer. Maybe with audible start and stop.

Brilliant Concept.... ...and even better execution. Insanely versatile and modifiable, this app is one of the smartest buys I've made. The Random Action Function alone sets it apart from every other timer out there.

Exceptionally useful. I am a professional martial artist and have used Ultra Trainer for years. Yeah, there’s a bug or two but there is no other random interval timer in existence that I know of, and it’s invaluable for solo training with a heavy bag. You record whatever combos you want and then while you work the bag UT makes you do them at random times. This is a game changer for building reaction time and adaptability. Without the app, you do a combo when you’re ready on your time, but with it you are forced to react just like you would to changing circumstances in a fight. I wish there was a dedicated hardware unit that would do the same thing but as is, Ultra Trainer does it’s job admirably. If you are concerned with it’s integration with your music library, you aren’t training hard enough! Thanks devs. Superior product that fills a real need.

FANTASTIC!. I was looking for a timer that I could customize to do burst or interval training on the treadmill. I also need something with good visual to know when the interval had changed. This is perfect! For 3 minutes, the screen is light blue and I have a low intensity interval. Then the screen is red for the 3 minute high intensity interval, and so on. I also have the duration of the intervals change throughout. So I get the number of intervals I want, the lengths I want, and a count down of the interval along with a color change on the screen. Excellent. Highly recommend! iPad version would be nice.

Innovative idea!!. As a long time user of the ultra timer I knew I had to try this out. I love the idea of randomized intervals and commands. Can't wait to fully implement this in my training programs. Thanks guys!!

Update broke this. This was a great app until the most recent update. It will no longer work on my iPod 4 (which I use for all my training apps) even though it claims to work on IOS 6. It looks like it is going to open and then it crashes.I hope they fix it, but until they do the app is useless. Can I have my money back? If they are not going to fix it, why don't they offer an older version to IOS 6 users?

Yep they screwed the pooch on the last update.. Used to be a four star app. Only thing keeping it from being a five was the set up was a bit tedious. I set up twenty new actions and went to set the event time and the minute and second part go to zero regardless of what you set it to. Only the quarter second actually registers. With out this feature it is useless. Even on the preloaded program if you touch the intervals they set to zero. Can't adjust them so they are useless. Even imd tech support but nothing.

Works great but what about free upgrade to HD?. This app works pretty much as described - very flexible ways to set up intervals. I would have given it 5 stars except I received no response when I emailed about the free upgrade to UT HD for the iPad. It's the most flexible timer/interval app I haves used!

Another frustrated user. Latest update is broken on my iPod Model MC544LL/A running iOS Version 6.1.6. I use this app everyday an I hope you fix it soon.

Crash-O-Matic. When it works, this is a workable interval timer app; however it is poorly implemented and takes a LOOOONG time to program a new workout. It crashes a lot. Also is glitchy with sound levels.

Good, but could be better with more user options.. I find this app really useful, but it does need to extra options for creating and using exercise routines. Here's are a few suggestions to help make this a really great app: - include a global on/off for sounds (warnings, starting and stopping activities, etc). I find some of the included sounds way to loud, and the is no current way to mute the app sounds and still allow iPod audio to play through. - the app really, really needs to allow for repetitions of Actions, and not solely for the parent Activity. This would make setting up intervals much, much easier and intuitive. - portrait and landscape mode for the application itself, and not just the timer/training mode. - respond to emails. As myself and others have noted, there doesn't seem to be much response from the company. I've been waiting several days for a respond regarding their free offer to upgrade to the HD version, even though their app description states to email them directly, it should take this long to get a response back. - include a color picker to set the background colors for activities and warnings.

Getting Better!. I've had this app for some time now and I can honestly say they are making efforts to improve and make this app more user friendly and versatile. I am impressed!

Used to work... Not anymore!. App is fantastic when it used to work. Now there is a bug that prevents you from setting up time for actions. As a result, it is now completely unusable. Too bad because it still has the best features for setting up randomized time during workouts.

Well done.. Please add Apple Watch functionality. It would be very useful to have my watch vibrate/tap when it is time to change intervals.

It's a very good app - but no support, a feature won't work.. I love this app but for weeks I haven't been able to make the Bluetooth export / import feature work. Over two weeks ago I contacted the developers with their email support address - the only support I found on their site. No response. I've downgraded this app to three stars because of the complete lack of support and a major and very useful feature didn't work in the previous version and still doesn't in this version. I still recommend buying it.

Most recent update has some Voiceover issues. Used to have great Voiceover support. Now however, there some unlabeled buttons in the timers. Please fix. Would be happy to give a 5 star rating otherwise. IPhone SE iOS 11.1.

Crashes When You Record Yr Own Noises. When I try to add new drills (eg “slip drill,” “footwork ladder,” and so forth) using the record function the app closes. This is terribly frustrating. Tried to email the app devs but emails bounced back. Please fix!

Works well. After this last update everything seems to be working as it should. Very well actually! I would like to see bigger buttons though, as the ones that are on the app now are way to close together. As long as I don't have to pause anything I am ok. I have tried to pause the timer and hit the stop button instead. A way to lock the orientation would be a nice feature as well.

Couldn't for the life of me.... figure out why the sound kept disappearing 20 minutes into my workouts, now I know and am glad it's fixed. Wondering if anyone knows an easier way to transfer a workout to a regular ipod? I have quite a few workouts that I have to transfer to my regular ipod as it's less bulky to wear at the gym. Right now I have to record the workouts through an audio recording program which is very time consuming.

Problems with update. Since most recent IOS update you can 't add new timers or pictures or change old timers that were in place prior to update. Sent email to support but no response. It's a bummer cause I use to use this app every day.

Used to work. Good design. Now it ends badly. Even the shipped sample routines don't end well on an iPhone. Using 7.1 version of the app. With the latest iOS. No final buzzer or alarm...just quietly ends, leaving Me doing push-ups or whatever forever!

Huge update from "rounds" timer, incredible value, one minor glitch.. So I bought rounds and used it for a year. I believe it was made by the same company. it had it's problems like, you couldn't pause just the music and it took me a really long time to program excersize routines because you couldn't mix "timer groups" like you can here. Even so it was a great value at $4 instead of an expensive physical timer for a hundred dollars or so. This app, Ultra Trainer, works way better! all other problems I had are pretty much gone. its wonderful to be able to save my own voice recordings for alarms. That way when in my work out it's time to move on to say, pushups, I hear my voice say to myself "pushups" or "you have five seconds left" or whatever I want. This is great because I listen to the evening news podcast from the previous night while I work out outside in the morning at the park. The glitch: so there is this cool funtion where you can add actions inside of an interval that can be "random" or run in the order of "as listed." this way I can program it to say "run hard" for a random amount of time and "run easy" for a random amount of time, and so on. what great is that it's within an interval! The glitch is that the "as listed" option in these actions doesnt work properly. For whatever reason it mixes up the order. It does so consistantly, but it doesn't do it from the top action down to the bottom action, at least not when the interval is, lets say, the the third interval. Minor glitch, but it took me 20minutes to figure out why my stretches were all mixed up. Anyway, great app, and I'm looking forward to downloading and sharing some timer programs with others on the "timer exchange" community that you can access and upload/download to inside the app. Pretty great for $4!

One of a kind. Very nice idea, hope it will get even better. My only problem right now is that after the last update the pause is kinda broken. Update: after the recent bugfix release, pause is still broken for me: I pause timer on rest interval, then resume -- an the app crashes just as rest interval ends. Update #2: sorry, even after the latest update (which was supposed to fix exactly this) it crashes on resume just like before. Had to adjust by not using pause...

Great app!!!. Exactly what I was looking for. I hope the creators of this app provide constant updates as this is by far the best app I have seen of it's kind. Don't stop know...

best trainer!. This is the perfect trainer! You don't have to think you just throw the punch he yells out. I do wish they would add pre programed kicks! please . but if I had a mic I could program them myself!

Updated version did NOT fix. App continues to crash. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Which is especially frustrating because I trained clients using this app. Now I reccomed a different app for the to buy because this one is not reliable. Save your money, purchase a different app.

IT DOESNT GO ON AN I POD!. It clearly stated it was able to work on an i pod. And guess what I wasted my money for a useless app to me. I want a refund.

Workout Warrior. For anyone who loves to do Tabata and high intensity circuit training, this is a great app. Love the fact that I can create my own workouts and the random action feature is next level. I do have a question. I have recorded some of my own sounds and seem to have run out of audio storage. Is there a way to delete your own recorded sounds? Thanks!

Bug. Although there is places to write titles and descriptions of exercises, every time you try to write in them, the box goes blank and the screen pauses, you are unable to write in the box! Soo annoying as this is the ONLY reason I purchased this app. And it doesn't work!

Great!. Exactly what I had in mind!

Mine crashed also 3.3. Love this app but mine also crashed and have been unable to open it again despite doing the usual fixes. Am also worried the custom actions may have been lost

Unfortunately it is buggy and doesn't work described.. The main reason I bought this app was for the promise of completely randomized intervals. Eg if I set an interval of say 1min high intensity with a rest of 30sec, then I want the app to randomize the workout intensity from anywhere from 10sec to 1min and similarly with the rest interval like 10sec rest up to 30sec. So that doesn't work. Other issues are that if you open the app in landscape on the iPad, the app opens in portrait and you can't edit the workouts. You have to exit and reopen in portrait. I won't write any more other than to say, it's buggy and in need of fixes. The developer should make every effort to address these since people pay for service and expect that service to work.

does exactly what I need it to do. it's not pretty, and it takes a bit of figuring out, but it's flexible and powerful and once you have a routine set up, it works great.

Would be good if it worked. I only got to use this app a couple of times before it just stopped working, won't even start up?!?! I've move onto a new iPhone and reinstalled but still the same result, title screen then bombs out. Tried emailing support about it but they never responded, they must be happy that they have my money. Don't waste your money or download.

2nd review. Ok re-installed app and lost all my custom timers. Found out from developers that you can share all your timers, this can be used as a back-up copy/email to self or Bluetooth to someone who also has app. The Bluetooth option also saves any audio commands you have recorded - great idea! So far, this time, it has been stable. I have to say I love this app, so versitile. You can program any type of intervals, and input any type of exercise with your own audio commands. I have about 12 different training rutines programed into the app. I teach karate and have also put many training rutines for my class on this app, from high paced and grueling repetition drills to reaction drills. I just plug it into external speekers and train along with the class. I can't speak highly enough of it's potential uses for both personal fitness and for team training! A few things that would make this an absolutely incredable app: 1. A built in training log 2. The ability to include within the actions, individual pics or possibly video clips. This would completely blow all other fitness apps out of the water! Thanks for a fantastic app, Really really impressed!

Don't download.. App looks great but unstable as per past comments !!!had it for 1 hr then Freeze freeze and freeze! Back to analogue stop watch I go! Boo hoo trainer man! waste of cash!

amazing app. tried em all , tgis is all in 1!

great app. Very good for time customization-best I have seen. Needs to be able to insert already made actions or intervals into workouts more easily and use custom sounds in workout from sound files on iPhone. Great app

Best. Best timer training app out there but on some complicated routines it just crashes which is not good in the middle of a workout and is frustrating after having spent time designing a workout so I'm lowing the score

Needs to connect too Apple Music. Great app. Needs to connect to Apple Music. Also needs to fix the orientation from upright to side

Very useful app. This app is well worth the few dollars it costs. It's a very useful tool for anyone who trains on their own or with a partner. I love the customizability and features. Also includes a great feature to share timers with other users.

Excellent app for fitness classes. I wish I had known about this before I bought an expensive timer for my fitness classes.This is versatile and loud (buzzers come through speakers with music) .It's great that you can share the timers you create. The ability to dim the music with each interval is great. So is the option to change songs with each interval. It's not easy to learn how to create intervals verses actions at first. Also, I created a complex timer with voice commands and could not transfer it to another ipod since the voice commands will not go through on email share. Other than these small isssues, highly recommended!
