Interval Timer [WIP]

Personal Project · Q1 2026 –

I’ve spent my career handing off designs to developers. For this project, I decided to flip the script. I wanted to see if I could use AI tools to build a functional, native iOS 26 app from scratch. An interval timer for my own boxing and jump rope sessions and for my wife's Lagree lessons. The goal was to move fast, stay native, and see where the struggles are when a designer directly works with code.

The sports timer iOS app I actually want to use myself.

Challenge

You should be able to set up a sports timer in seconds. It has to be easy to read and easy to operate with sweaty, shaking hands, so you can work those muscles.
All the existing timer apps that I tested are clunky, don't leverage familiar interaction patterns, and are hard to use when doing sports. The phone and watch interfaces have low legibility, weak visual hierarchy, and lacking accessibility. In short, these apps are not made for sweaty, messy sport environments.

Solution

An iOS and watchOS native app that easily let's you create, edit, and run symmetrical and asymmetrical templates. So you can focus on what's most important, your workout. If you know how to use Apple Calendar, Mail, or Fitness, you instantly know how to use this timer.
