How the rest timer works

By default, Gript starts a rest timer automatically every time you complete a set — no extra taps. The countdown is visible in the app and, on iOS, on your lock screen.

Change the default rest duration#

  1. During a workout, tap the gear button to open Workout Settings.
  2. Under Timer, tap Default Rest Duration and pick a time.
Timer settings in Gript: Auto Rest Timer toggle, Default Rest Duration set to 2:00, and Sound When Timer Ends
The Timer section in Workout Settings.

While the timer is running#

The Gript rest timer counting down from 1:52 with -15, +15, and Skip controls
The rest timer starts automatically when you complete a set.

When the timer ends, Gript plays a sound (if timer sounds are on) or sends a notification if the app is in the background.

Turn auto-start off#

In Workout Settings, toggle Auto Rest Timer off. You can still start rests manually whenever you want one.
