## What is Pool Clock?

Pool Clock is designed for interval-based training during swimming exercise.
This app simply reproduces the traditional analog swimming pace clock found on the pool deck.

By placing your device or a TV monitor connected to the device at the poolside, you can start swimming workouts wherever you are.
Be careful to keep your electronic device waterproof when use it poolside.

*** Interval ***
With the interval function, you can easily track the interval on the pace clock.
Once you set the Interval Time, Iteration (the number of interval repetitions), and Preparation time (time before the first start), a small triangle appears on the outside of the dial of the clock to indicate the next start time.

*** Digital Clock ***
The digital clock can be displayed or hidden using the ON/OFF button in the menu.
The digital clock displays the current time of the device.
You can choose between 12-hour or 24-hour display.

*** Sound ***
You can turn on/off the countdown beep sound in the menu.

*** Notice ***
This app prevents the screen from turning off while it is open.

### 5/5 — Works Great

*2025-01-18, version 1.1.0*

The only thing I would add is the ability to use it in split screen mode on iPad. Then you could have pace clock on one side and workout on the other side.  That would make it perfect me.

### 5/5 — Does it work with Apple TV??

*2022-01-26, version 1.1.0*

Does the app work with Apple TV?? Does not appear when searching.

### 1/5 — 止める事が出来ない

*2021-06-01*

秒針を止める事が出来ないので、他の時計と合わせる事が出来ない。

**Developer response:** レビューいただき、誠にありがとうございます。現状の仕様では、分針/秒針は端末の時刻に一致させていることから、一時停止や任意の時刻での設定ができません。ご期待に沿えず申し訳ございません。今後の改修の参考とさせていただきます。

### 4/5 — Simple, works well

*2019-11-08, version 1.0.0*

I put my phone in a dry bag/ case and hang it from block. This is very simple to use, works well enough and could be great with some tweaks like:
- digital clock is hard to see. More contrast or allow changing the appearance 
- add a beep for start 
- use whole screen - make the interval marker bigger some way - or something like the clock app uses for timer display
