Cardio Timer to continue when you close the screen
When you close the screen as the timer starts the timer doesn’t continue counting down and if you don’t open the app the timer doesn’t start.
This is for the cardio timer
Hi everyone,
Thanks for your great suggestion! We’re marking this idea as completed!
Now when you toggle out of a cardio exercise, the timer continues counting.
We’re returning your vote to you so please come back to feedback.trainerize.com to add your vote to other ideas.
Thanks!

It also doesn’t count down for rest if you leave the app

People have been complaining about this since 2017 and still we don't at least have the OPTION to keep the timer going when the app is in the background!?? This is a bug that is apparently being viewed as feature and needs to be fixed ASAP!

I’m also experiencing the glitch where when the timer ends, instead of chiming (it used to), the app closes. So I miss it ending, and then have to go back into the app.

There is also a timer glitch as of late that closes out the app if you’re in it. Totally disruptive for hiit sessions as the app initializes each time it closes you out.

My workout pauses any time I leave the app to play music, use my heart rate app, see a text message, etc. Keep the workout timer going unless I manually pause it.

The cardio test timer stops if I switch over to another app for a second. It should keep going.
(Also for some reason, my streaming music stops when the timer comes on.)

When I start the timer for the cardio walk/jog it doesn’t notify me when I have met the time and I forget to go into the app and stop the timer at the end of the walk/jog.

Think of a way for the app not to continuously pause so you can keep your phone in your pocket while working out

When completing some timed workouts, the app will stop the timer when you switch out off the app to another one. It’s annoying when you want to change music or do something else and the timer stops , especially on times rests.

During my workouts I often want to open Spotify to change the song or playlist, but this causes the workout timer to pause, even though I am still running / doing the exercise.

Keep the timer rolling when you exit the app

flipping from different apps for the music and the timer is time wasting and abrupts the work-out.customized timer or countdown and with the coach’s voices to get the feel of being in the gym with your personalized trainer

When working out I’d like to be able to close my phone/the app to save battery/put it in my packet. It disrupts my flow when it pauses especially during cardio or timed workouts.

Be able to watch Netflix or get out of the app without your workout pausing (cardio)

Have app keep phone on so as not to have to unlock it every time.
