Bad

Can not get it to work! Bought the subscription, have gave the app a chance for weeks now!!! Either will miss my start, or my finish! Has yet to get ONE rep!

Response from developer

Hi, we understand how frustrating it must be not to have completed a successful rep yet. We’d really appreciate the opportunity to look at your setup with you and show you how to get the best results from the app. Correct device placement, distance between athlete and devices are important for reliable timing, and often only a few small adjustments are needed. Please contact us at support@photofinish-app.com and let us know which start mode and devices you're using. If possible, send us a photo or short video of your setup as well. We’ll be happy to guide you through it so you can start collecting your data, tracking your progress and using those insights to improve your performance. Paulo Photo Finish Team

買い切りにして欲しい。

できればサブスクではなく買い切りにして欲しい

Response from developer

フィードバックありがとうございます! Photo Finishでは、アプリの継続的な開発、アップデート、新機能の追加、サービスの維持・改善を続けていくため、サブスクリプション形式を採用しています。 一度購入して終わりのアプリではなく、今後もより良いタイミングツールとして継続的に改善していくことを大切にしています。 ご理解いただければ幸いです。 Photo Finish Team

Decent but a few annoying challenges

The app works well except for a few things. Firstly the sound on the ready set go function is extremely quiet. It’s not my phone as the sound is more than loud enough on other apps. From even 20m away it’s nearly impossible to hear. A Bluetooth speaker would introduce lag and impact accuracy.

Secondly it does not work well at detecting more than one lane away from the camera.

Response from developer

Thanks for your detailed feedback and the 5-star review! You are correct about the Ready-Set-Go volume on Apple devices. The volume could be louder, and this is something we hope to improve in the future. On Android devices, the volume is currently sufficient. However, Ready-Set-Go is not designed to be used with the starting device positioned far away from the athlete. Over longer distances, the sound itself takes time to travel from the phone to the athlete, which introduces a delay and affects the accuracy of the test. For accurate timing, the Ready-Set-Go sound should therefore be played from a device positioned close to the athlete. Regarding detection across multiple lanes, please have a look at the detection range in the app settings. You can select different detection ranges depending on your setup: 1.5–2.5 m, 1.5–4.5 m, or 1.5–6 m. Selecting the appropriate range should help when timing athletes further away from the camera. We hope this helps, and thanks again for the constructive feedback! Paulo Photo Finish Team

One feature needs to be free

You need to be able to pair multiple devices for free. For timing a race it is unusable unless you buy the pro version. It would also be nice if a few of the start options were free.

Response from developer

Hi sevithes, thanks for sharing your thoughts. The free version of Photo Finish includes our core single-device timing with automatic chest detection and split tracking, which covers most solo training needs. Multi-device pairing is part of Pro because it relies on extra infrastructure, and Pro is what allows us to keep developing the app as a small team. That said, we hear you on wanting more flexibility in the start options, and we'll take that into account.If there's anything else you'd like to share, feel free to reach out. support@photofinish-app.com

Pas de version gratuite

La description laisse croire qu’il y a une version gratuite, alors qu’il n’en est rien. On est obligé de s’abonner.

Response from developer

Bonjour YomsGH, merci pour votre retour. Photo Finish propose bien une version gratuite avec les fonctionnalités principales de chronométrage automatique, y compris la détection du buste et les temps intermédiaires. Seules certaines fonctionnalités avancées (comme la synchronisation multi-appareils et certains types de départ) nécessitent l'abonnement Pro. Nous sommes désolés que cela n'ait pas été assez clair dans la description. N'hésitez pas à nous contacter via photofinish-app.com si vous souhaitez de l'aide pour utiliser la version gratuite, avec plaisir!

It’s works perfectly!!

But Please add the shotgun sound in the On your mark/Set starting.
Thank you for your work , it’s helps a lot !!

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback and the rating. We are happy to hear that the app helps you a lot. Regarding the shotgun sound. We use to have a Shotgun sound but later we found out that the beep is more accurate. So thats why we are not using the shotgun sound anymore. We hope you can understand that we prefer accuracy over the type of start sound.

Very useful and well made

great

Solid app

The app is pretty good. All you need is two things, two phones to measure sprints (like 20m fly sprint for example) and the membership. I do like the app. Especially as a sprinter, it’s important to know what times you’re running during practice. So 5 star rating in my opinion is justified

Very good app

Very good! The app works well. You have the choice of upgrading the plan if you want. However the free model works super well. No need for an expensive timing system. It worlds really well! Definitely Recommend
