OPERATION of ITGO is based around three main screens; the Timer, Settings and Audio screens.
Users start by selecting their session workout time, the fast interval duration and the slow/fast interval ratio. Users can also choose to switch the vibration alerts on or off on this page.
Next, users can switch to the Sounds page to select music from their onboard iPod library for the separate Slow and Fast playlists. The Sounds page also includes options to choose audio prompts, select the playlist play mode and volume settings for the prompts and music.
Finally users switch to the Timer screen and after selecting a warm up and cool down length from zero to 3 minutes, start their workout. ITGOs timers then count down the intervals in circular segments and displays individual numerical timers for the fast and slow intervals and total session duration as well as the currently playing song and provides double vibration alerts at each interval change.
The music playlists can be set to shuffle, repeat or just play in order.

Latest reviews of ITGO - Interval Trainer GO - The Ultimate Gym and Outdoor Timer for Cardio Health, Fitness and Well Being app for iPhone and iPad
So simple but complete. You have both the music and the timer for doing Interval training. Get this right away, even the price is a steal for such a handy application.
This is exactly what Ive been looking for for spinning and running intervals. Love that you can use your own music library to create the fast and slow playlists. Worth every penny!
There needs to be longer session time and longer interval time to make this a 5 star application. The session time is max 30 min, and the interval time is max 60 seconds.
Like a previous review states, the app is excellent, except that it doesnt see any podcasts in my iPhone, and I have many. Please fix this, and this app will get 5 stars!
UPDATED after more use - simple and straight forward – I like it a lot. Some suggestions – 1 After using it a couple of times now I have realized the session length includes the warmup and cooldown - This is very confusing and made for a very short workout the second time out. The session length should include only the fast/slow intervals since that is the amount of time people are trying to calculate for their invervals. Also it would require doing the albiet simple math in your head to chang the session lenght if you want to adjust the length of you warmup and cooldown. 2 There should be an option for warning beeps say 2-3 seconds before the end of a fast or slow cycle. It seems too jarring wondering when the fast interval will hit. 3 The warm-up options are far too limited, I would want a much longer warm-up especially now that winter is coming. Many other reviews want more options for making up the intervals as well. Overall more customization is desired. 4 There is no counter or progress bar for the number of intervals you have done/will do in the workout. 5 When you un-pause the workout the playlist jumps to the next song instead of picking up where it left off which is annoying. Also there is no reason to switch songs from the warmup to the first slow interval.
