## What is Run Stopwatch?

Run Stopwatch is an app designed to assist coaches in timing multiple athletes.  It is based on the popular Swim Stopwatch but designed to be more comfortable for timing runners.

Run Stopwatch's unique and original layout allows a single coach to time multiple athletes while also freeing them up to focus on the race and not their watch.  All you need to do is tap the large button whenever you need a split, then while runners are making away around that track you take a short moment to drag their split time to the appropriate lane and split number.  Run Stopwatch will calculate the split and cumulative times for you so that you don't have to do any math.

### 5/5 — Update???

*2023-03-09*

Can you update the app so it will work on newer iPads?

### 1/5 — Keyboard not working

*2019-12-17*

Bought the full version and only half the keyboard works. Have to keep flipping the phone from left side to right side to be able to type using all the letters. Very annoying don’t want to even use the app. Hopefully there is a fix.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2017-08-27*

This is a great app for all Cross Country coaches. Would make this better is if you could share live stats with another coach with the app as the race is going. This way multiple coaches could see splits of their runners as the race is going. Customizable cells is defiantly worth the in app purchase price.

### 5/5 — Great help

*2014-09-14*

We use this for many track meets. Very handy especially with people not use to timing. Has many features to help protect you from mistakes. If you've ever tried to time many athletes at a meet and keep separate lap times you'll know what I mean. People "help" but many mistakes made. This makes it simple. Just tap as they go by then drag times to the right person. In app purchase well worth it and always good to support the developers that make these.

### 3/5 — missing one thing

*2014-09-02*

good but you have no running time visible for a split, you have no idea of the athletes time progress until you hit the split button. This may be ok if you are only timing race splits but as a coach it is not acceptable for training when you need a how much time has passed in a rest interval

### 5/5 — The Best!!!

*2014-04-22*

Great app!!! I love it!!! Worth the price!! The developer will answer any questions you have. 
Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2014-02-26*

A great app gets even better.  With the ability to save and email now, I don't even think I'll even carry a clipboard anymore.

### 5/5 — Simple and well conceived

*2013-09-28*

Exactly the kind of app a cross country coach needs. Editable labels and customizable number of competitors would turn this 5 star app into a must have for every cc coach out there! Great job.

### 3/5 — Stopwatch for TT

*2013-05-03*

A good Ap that has a lot of potential. I would like to use it for time trials but it does not allow enough riders to have times recorded.  Would also help if they were individually numbered so times can be placed against a riders no.

### 5/5 — Nbtsports

*2013-02-22*

I love it!!!!   Thanks for the change in graphics, it feels more personal for us track guys (there is not a lot out there for Us) although the pool graphics at my track meets were a conversation starter.  Would it be possible to add a text only box for athlete ID??  Or an option to add more athletes??   Thanks again
