I tried every interval-based watch on the App Store to help w distance pacing and stats for track, they are all pretty much frustrating or impractical except for this one. The main buttons need to be bigger, but with that my review changes to a resounding 5 stars.


Good basic functionality, but buggy

I'd love to remove the ads, but the UI keep crashing


Awesome!

Phenomenal watch! Especially great for time groups or multiple people at once. I highly recommend this app!


Wow

This is fabulous. Multiple stopwatches and lap times. Simple, effective, brilliant!


Nooooo!

This program has been exceptional until today. I just updated the app and it crashed! I use this app every week for my students' 1-mile run. Please get this back on track!


Great update!

That is a brilliant solution to a difficult problem! I've tested many apps in ten years of coaching and this app is the most elegant software solution I've seen to timing multiple athletes in a race. Hitting the up button for a lap and the down button to stop the timer and then dragging the lap or stop time to the correct athlete is very creative and useful.


Excellent stopwatch!

It's alright

I really need a stop watch that can do time trials. I want to put a list of racers in and when each racer starts, start their timer, and when they finish that time is recorded. Then they go for their second run and it starts from 0 again, and not where the clock left off. A timer for multi run downhill races!


Great app

I run Nordic ski time trials in the winter. These are very loose and informal with changes taking place on the fly. I needed an app with multiple, individually-controlled watches that could also be used in mass start mode. This app does that. Our time trialers sometimes straggle in late but still want to get a time. This app allows that. The setup is good and flexible enough to allow a participant to sign up for one lap, say, and then, in real time, add more to the total. There are no Nordic races in the default race type but they can be added to the list easily. After the fact, it's pretty trivial to email results to participants and to copy results into another app. I maintain a web site where results are archived and this app allows me to do that without going through an online service. The results formatting is simple and easy to read. I tried other apps but found this one to be the best for my use.


?? Still a superb app! ??

These Ultimate Stopwatches are outstanding! I can actually roll the stopwatch numbers to a specific time if need be! I really like this app and all I can do with it. Keep up the good work! Won't be deleting this off my phone!
