### 1/5 — Can’t change time remaining

*2022-06-03*

Worthless as you can’t update the game time left if you miss a start/stop or if your time does not match up with the refs. 
As a sideline parent this app can really only help you keep score since you will most likely miss a whistle at some point. You know, because you’re watching your kid.

**Developer response:** Hi There. Based on your comment, I added this as a new feature. Please look for the new version (2.5.0) which should allow you to adjust the time remaining during the game. The only restriction would be that you would need to stop the clock and then hit the timer value to adjust the running clock. 
If there is anything else you find annoying or needs changing, please use the support link and I can look into it. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Excellent App for Lacrosse

*2020-02-14*

The features are easy to use and fixes some problems I had with other timer apps. The developer is extremely responsive and listens to what the end user needs/wants. 

Looking forward to sharing this with all of our scorekeepers and other teams will surely want to know about the amazing app we are using!

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2019-05-08*

Simple, but functional. Everything is done without ever leaving the main screen. It’s also nice that screen doesn’t lock while using it.
