Does count laps but nothing more

....And timer will stop if phone goes into standby mode

Does not track individual lap times.
Does not store workout sessions / history.

Once you finish the workout there are 2 options. 1. Email results (only laps, lap goal and lap time). Or 2. Restart session

Up to you whether you think your getting value for money.

Just a total - no further info

I was looking for a lap counter that could give me som stats about my swims. It tells you how many laps and how long over all you took but doesn’t give any time per lap.

This could be a great app for people with out expensive smart watches if it gave a tiny bit more info.

It does indeed count laps

It works very well at counting laps - you have to touch the screen for 2 seconds so that you don’t do it accidentally, but it’s not awkward to do while running.

It’s handy to be able to set up the number of laps in advance, and see the percentage you’ve completed.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t save any data, such as time per lap or total time. I wouldn’t think it would be that hard to at least keep track of workouts and total times. I’m going to keep looking for an app that does that.

Worthless App

I did ONE lap and it said I need to purchase the full app to move on. Worthless! Why bother to have something free if it doesn't even calculate one lap!

Response from developer

Hi Curleelox... I can only think that you may not have input a larger than one lap input... This app is designed for runners, swimmers etc. that want to log how many laps till they reach their goal. I know for me, when I run the track, I just can't keep track of how many I've done.

Extortion

If there's one thing I won't do, it's to be extorted into paying for an app to continue or see my stats. Nowhere does it indicate that you should buy the app until you're 75% done with your goal. Like the other reviewers that I failed to read before hand, I was 75% through my goal of a 2 THOUSAND Meter SWIM. They want me to stop my swim, dry off, so that the Touch-ID will work, remove my phone from its waterproof case, then purchase your app? I would have paid way more if they weren't so underhanded about it. DELETE!!!! Charge 99 cents for the app like everyone else, or give on free try, but not a partial free try. Deleting this underhanded app right after completing this review.

Response from developer

Hi SCW1313, Never wanted to think of what I was doing as extortion, but I understand from your end what that might look like. The new version 1.5 (coming soon) will have a disclaimer, warning, message regarding ONLY working up to 75% of any goal the user would like to work towards, before requiring an in-app purchase. I would like to think of it as "try before you buy"... I value your input, and have adjusted the app to better reflect what is happening. Sometimes as a developer, we are so far into the programming that we forget the end result, may not be what all users are expected to experience. Never wanted it to be underhanded, as you say in anyway. Hope you'll rejoin us with the new version. I appreciate your comments. John
