Signed & reviewed by Apple
Squall is delivered only through the App Store — every release is reviewed and code-signed by Apple, so the build you install is verified, untampered, and the right one for your device.
No account, no servers
There's no sign-up and nothing to hack — your workouts live on your device and, if you choose, in your own private iCloud.
Built native for iOS
A true SwiftUI app made for iOS 18 and up, so it stays fast, battery-light, and fully at home on your iPhone.
01 — The Promise
Beautiful. Dependable. Quiet when it counts.
The leading timers win on features and lose on trust — cues firing while paused, hijacked music, dead batteries mid-WOD. Squall's wedge is the opposite: flawless on the three things that matter when you're out of breath.
Instantly readable
Enormous tabular numerals, phase-coded color, and a depleting ring you can read across the gym in under half a second — even eight rounds deep, vision blurred.
It never lies
Pause means silence — no cue ever fires while you're stopped. Every beep is scheduled against the workout clock, so it can't drift, double up, or miss.
Out of your way
Your music stays yours — Squall ducks for a cue, then hands the volume back. No account, no sign-up, battery-conscious, and never an ad during a workout.
02 — See It Run
Watch the storm break.
This is Squall's actual running screen — a recording of the app counting through a real work / rest interval, color worlds and all.
The screen is the signal
Warm on work, cool on rest — the whole color world floods on every phase change, so a glance tells you where you are.
A ring that never lies
The depleting ring is driven by the workout clock, not a sleep timer, so it stays exactly true to the second.
Always knows what's next
A clear “NEXT UP” preview means you’re never caught off guard between stages.
03 — Every Timer You Need
Five timer types. One flawless engine.
AMRAP
As Many Rounds As Possible
Counts down to zero with an on-screen round/rep tally, halfway chime, and a final-10s count.
For Time
Stopwatch with an optional cap
Counts up until you're done, captures splits, and auto-stops at a time cap if you set one.
EMOM
Every Minute On the Minute
Repeating intervals with a strong top-of-minute cue. Supports alternating A/B stations with labels.
Tabata
Work / rest intervals
Classic 20s/10s × 8 — or fully editable work, rest, rounds, and sets with distinct phase sounds.
Mix
Chain stages into one WOD
String countdown, AMRAP, rest, EMOM, and Tabata stages into one continuous workout with auto-advance and a next-up preview.
Build it once, save it forever
Dial in any timer — or a full Mix — give it a name, and save it to your library, so your go-to WODs start in a single tap next time.
04 — Clock Faces
Pick the face that fits your training.
Every face floods the screen with a phase “color world” — warm on work, cool on rest — so a glance tells you exactly where you are. Switch the look without ever changing how the timer behaves.
Radial
A calm, quietly emptying ring — nothing to pull your focus.
Pride
A vivid dot field that blooms with each round.
Bold
Stacked numerals you can read from across the box.
05 — Built Like an Apple App
The details you only notice when they're missing.
Accurate, even locked
Cues keep firing with the screen locked or the app in the background, scheduled against the workout clock so timing never drifts.
Voice & sound cues
Beeps, spoken cues, or both — rendered on-device. Countdown, halfway, work/rest, and an unmistakable GO and TIME.
Haptics
A clear haptic vocabulary mirrors every audio cue, so they land even with music loud and the phone face-down on a bench.
Your music, untouched
Squall mixes with Spotify, Apple Music, or a podcast and only ducks briefly for a cue — it never seizes the audio route.
Private by design
No accounts, no servers. Workouts live on your device and, if you choose, sync through your own private iCloud.
Accessible & hands-free
Full VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and Reduce Motion support — plus Siri control to start, pause, or end a workout.
Works everywhere you train
On your Apple Watch
Start, control, and read your workout right from your wrist — no phone in hand.
In the Dynamic Island
Minimize Squall and your timer keeps running live in the Dynamic Island.
On the Lock Screen
A glance at a locked phone shows exactly where you are in the workout.

07 — Questions
The honest answers.
No. Squall mixes with whatever you're playing — Spotify, Apple Music, a podcast — and only ducks the volume briefly for a cue, then hands it back. It never seizes the audio route.
Never. Pause means silence is a hard guarantee — no scheduled cue can fire while the timer is stopped. Cues are scheduled against the workout clock, so they can't drift or double up either.
No accounts, no sign-up, no servers. Your workouts live on your device and, if you turn it on, sync through your own private iCloud that only you can access.
