Backup, restore, and cross-device sync
Timers & Alarms saves your whole setup — timers, alarms, and preferences — to one plain-JSON file you keep. See how backup and restore work, why an open, readable format means your data is never locked in, and how the same file moves your setup to a new iPhone or a second device.
HIIT and workout intervals
Build a HIIT or circuit workout as one interval timer in Timers & Alarms — a warm-up, your work-and-rest rounds, and a cool-down. See how to set the durations and rounds, give each phase its own sound, and read the current phase at a glance on the Lock Screen, the Dynamic Island, and the widget.

Live Activities & the Dynamic Island
A running timer follows you out of the app. See what Timers & Alarms shows on the Lock Screen and the Dynamic Island — the name, the live countdown, the current phase and round — and how to pause, resume, stop, or start the next round without opening the app.
