RUNNING COACH'S CLIPBOARD Put the stopwatches, paper and handwritten athlete lists aside. Running Coach's Clipboard gives coaches, athletes, parents and running fans a powerful way to time races, capture splits, manage athletes and record results — all in one app. Built for track, cross country, road racing, race walking and workouts, Running Coach's Clipboard lets you spend less time managing stopwatches and more time watching your athletes. TIME UP TO 100 ATHLETES Time and track up to 100 athletes in the same event. Record individual splits as athletes pass, capture finishing times with a tap, and follow the entire race as it happens. Choose from a comprehensive collection of distances and events: • Sprints and distance races • Cross country • Road racing • Race walking • Relays • Workouts and repeats • Metric and imperial distances • Custom events Select boys, girls, men, women or mixed competition, along with heats, semifinals and finals. KNOW WHO YOU'RE TIMING Build your own athlete database with names, teams, schools, notes and optional photos. Quickly select athletes and assign them to events. Set up your athletes and events before a meet, then load everything when it's time to race. SPLITS AND FINISH TIMES Running Coach's Clipboard maintains a live record of each athlete's splits and finishing time. Instead of juggling several stopwatches while trying to write times on paper, simply tap the athlete as they pass. For longer races, optional audio announcements can call out the running stopwatch time so you can keep your eyes on the competitors. BUILT FOR RELAYS Create relay teams and assign athletes to individual legs. During the race, Running Coach's Clipboard follows the relay from runner to runner while preserving individual leg times. FIELD EVENTS TOO Running Coach's Clipboard isn't limited to running events. Record performances in: • High Jump • Pole Vault • Long Jump • Triple Jump • Shot Put • Discus • Javelin • Hammer Throw • Weight Throw For horizontal jumps and throws, record performances in metric or imperial measurements, including passes and fouls. For vertical jumps, track heights, attempts, clearances, misses and passes. MISSED THE START? Missed the start of a race by a few seconds? No problem. The Late Start feature lets you start the clock after the race has begun and enter how much time has already elapsed. Running Coach's Clipboard automatically adjusts the race clock and athlete times. RACE PREDICTIONS Enter a performance at one distance and use the built-in predictor to estimate equivalent performances at other distances. Multiple prediction formulas help coaches and athletes compare performances and plan workouts, races and goals. SAVE AND SHARE RESULTS Keep meet and workout results for later review, or quickly share and export them for use with other apps, spreadsheets and databases. WORKS EVEN WITHOUT INTERNET No Wi-Fi at the track or out on the cross country course? No problem. Core timing and recording features work without an active internet connection. Record the race now and share the results later. MORE THAN A STOPWATCH Whether you're timing three runners during a workout or keeping track of an entire team at a meet, Running Coach's Clipboard is built around one simple idea: Spend less time managing the stopwatch — and more time watching your athletes. ## Key features - Time up to 100 athletes - Record splits and finishing times - Manage athlete database with photos - Support for relays and field events - Late start and race prediction features - Save, share, and export results - Offline functionality ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Full Version | $9.99 | one-time | ## Recent user reviews (10 of 20) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/running-coachs-clipboard/id384927992/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Needs bug fixes to be worth the price *2017-02-26* Judging by the previous reviews you would expect the relay bugs to be fixed by now. But it's not. Still skips from 1st runner to 4th runner and makes it impossible to get relay splits. Tons of features But needs some updating. Could be a great app in a shallow market for this type of app ### 4/5 — Good App *2015-08-28* We use it for high school cross country. Overall it is very helpful for timing several people at one time, and having it in a format that will let you email the results to yourself once you get back to wifi is nice. I'm still trying to figure out how to (or even if it will let me) put runners in the order that I anticipate them finishing and/or how to see a larger group of runners without scrolling as they are about to finish. That would make it even better. It just gets crazy when we have 4 or 5 of our runner crossing within about 5 seconds of each other and trying to hurry and scroll up and down to find them by alpha order. overall thumbs up...pros outweighed the cons in our case...was worth the money ### 4/5 — Coach L *2014-03-28* I really like the app. But a bit confusing to use and the app choices on the bottom of the screen are hard to read because they are white on white. Can't really see the set up, save etc. commands. Can that be fixed? ### 5/5 — Wonderful!!!! *2013-08-13* I've been using this app since late 2010 for Cross Country, Track (Indoor and Outdoors) and every workout and with XC starting up I figured it is time to write a review. It's wonderful!!!! It does everything it says, the development team is responsive (it even has obscure field events) and frankly its fun to use. Last fall at a 50 team championship meet I saw 5 other coaches using it so I guess I'm not the only one. ### 3/5 — Bad Update *2012-10-20* I just updated the app, which I like, but now it is displayed improperly. The coaches clipboard is covering other buttons so I can not update athletes. When I do try to add or delete athletes, the keyboard covers the display so I can not see what I am typing...therefore all my names are auto corrected. Frustrating update. ### 4/5 — Great Potential, but . . . *2012-04-25* I gave this a four. I would give it a five+ if the issues I describe are fixed. I used this app for the first time at last night's track meet. It was easy to enter the athletes and set up the events, although I couldn't figure out how to import my athletes. I love the concept and potential of this app, but found it difficult to time multiple competitors in the same event. The buttons are too small, especially the relay split buttons. Since there is no tactile sensation of pressing a button, I was often disappointed to find that I had missed the button or pressed the wrong one. When you are watching for the finish or the relay exchanges, you can't be looking at the iPad and this made it difficult to press the buttons, especially if you were trying to time two relay teams. It also crashed on me three times. When I reopened the app, the timer was still running, but it had messed up the splits. Each time it crashed it was when I pressed a button to record a split. I really like this app and would love to use it regularly, but until the crashing is fixed I can't rely on it. I would also suggest an interface change where there is a screen for set-up where you can make all the choices and then a screen for doing the actual timing which has bigger buttons. Part of the problem is that the program allows for 100 athletes which is great for cross country but overkill for track. But having that many competitors requires small buttons. Perhaps having the program adapt to how many entrants you have would help. Or for a quicker fix, I would suggest that the Competitors area on the screen be widened and the results screen be narrowed. The buttons for getting splits should be as large as the Start button since accuracy of touch is compromised by having your attention on the races. ### 1/5 — Love the idea... *2012-04-03* I love the idea of this app, and if it worked as one might expect-- it would be the ONLY clipboard a track/XC coach would ever need...period. However, it is flawed and it makes you frustrated. The stop watch and individual buttons do not react nearly as fast as they need to in order to give instant/accurate splits during workouts. There seems to be a long (1-2 second) delay to the whole program. Also, I'd love to have a "split all" button, just like the "start all" and "stop all." This way you could time workouts much more effectively when you have more than 1 person starting a repeat. Otherwise the app is useless. At the very least, the ability to edit the text file that the splits are being dumped into would help to edit mistakes on the fly-- while the clock is running. The delay needs to be improved and some simple/intuitive features need to be added in order for this product to be worth what you pay for it. The way the app is now, it really should be free... ### 1/5 — Wasted $10! *2012-03-08* This is the first review I have ever written, but I feel very strongly that this app is simply not what I would expect from a $10 app. I have been trying to update my athlete database, but I can't get 2 athletes entered before it continually crashes. I love the concept, but I wish I would have used this money on a usable purchase. ### 1/5 — Weak *2012-02-20* This is without a doubt the worst app that I have downloaded. Free or paid! The concept is great, but ... That's about it. You should be able to toggle on and off all of the events you want viewed. Once an athlete or athletes are selected and the click starts, the button should change to stop. You should be able to turn off the unnecessary time of day the the stopwatch starts and stops for each race. Lots to be fixed before this is a useable app ### 1/5 — Nice But Not Accurate *2012-02-19* It looks great but crashes quite a bit AND when you have multiple runners crossing the line simultaneously it has two major weaknesses...you can't watch them and the screen at the same time and there is a delay in recording times as you click buttons quickly - so two runners crossing at exactly the same time will show several seconds between them in the final results. Not nearly accurate enough for the $10 it costs. ## Frequently asked questions about Running Coach's Clipboard ### What is Running Coach's Clipboard?
