How long is a boxing round?

Professionally a round is usually 3 minutes with 1 minute rest; many amateur bouts use 2 or 3 minutes. Set the times the way your gym runs them.

Does the app have a dedicated boxing mode?

No, and we will not claim one. NanoTimer has an interval timer that does exactly this: rounds with work and rest, with spoken cues and a bell-like beep.

Does this work on the bag without looking at my phone?

In the app it does: rounds are spoken out loud and your music only ducks briefly. Open the interval timer with the button above.
