I couldn't find a boxing timer that wasn't bloated with ads, so I built one - Lemmy.World
All I wanted was: set rounds, set rest, press start, hear a bell. That’s it. Every timer app I found was either full of ads, required a subscription, or had 47 features I didn’t need. I just want to hit the bag without watching a 30-second ad between rounds. So I built BoxTime [https://apps.apple.com/app/id6759327767] — a dead-simple round timer for boxing, Muay Thai, MMA, whatever. You set your rounds, rest time, and go. No account, no subscription, no interruptions. Features I actually use: - Custom round/rest times - Warning bell at 10 seconds - Different sounds for round end vs rest end - Works with screen off (this was huge for me) But honestly, even a kitchen timer taped to your wall works. The point is having STRUCTURE in your training. Random bag work without timed rounds is just cardio with extra steps.
