## What is StopWatch + Camera?

Every time you press Start or Stop, StopWatch + Camera automatically takes a photo — giving you both the exact time AND a visual record of that moment. Perfect for coaches timing athletes, parents at sporting events, or anyone who needs proof alongside their numbers.

TIMING THAT TELLS THE FULL STORY
Standard stopwatches give you a number. StopWatch + Camera gives you a number and a photo. When your runner crosses the finish line, you capture both the time and the moment — automatically.

SPLIT TIMES, BEAUTIFULLY ORGANIZED
Track every lap with accumulated and individual split times displayed in a clean, scrollable list. Review your full session at a glance from the Splits screen.

SHARE YOUR RESULTS WITH PHOTO INCLUDED
Tap the share icon from the Splits screen to send your results two ways:
• Email — sends a formatted results table with the session photo automatically attached
• iMessage & messaging apps — shares results and photo directly to any contact

GUN TIME SUPPORT
Running a mass-start race? Set a gun time offset so the app calculates each athlete's net time automatically — essential for road races, triathlons, and team events.

DESIGNED FOR COACHES AND ATHLETES
• Enter event name, athlete name, and session details
• Track unlimited laps per session
• Review accumulated time and individual split time for each lap
• Toggle a running split display during timing

MODERN DESIGN, BUILT FOR TODAY'S IPHONE
Full dark mode support, SF Symbol icons, and a clean camera-forward interface designed to stay out of your way while you focus on the action.

PERFECT FOR:
• Track & field and cross-country coaches
• Swimming and cycling coaches
• Fitness trainers and personal coaches
• Parents at youth sporting events
• Race officials and timekeepers
• Anyone who needs timed photo documentation

Privacy: Camera access is used to take photos during timing sessions. Photos are saved to your Photo Library. No data is collected or shared with any server.

### 4/5 — Very useful - could use a few tweaks

*2026-05-22*

We use this app as a backup timing system for events - it’s a great way to verify our official timing system. It would be very helpful to add visual or haptic feedback when recording a finish - with sound on you can hear a “camera shutter” noise but it would be good to add to this for noisy environments. 

The banner is fine, but the text is too small to read (at least for older eyes) during events.

### 5/5 — Perfect for races!

*2026-05-03*

With the ability to capture both a photo and a time for every runner who crosses the finish line, this is an invaluable app for anyone who organises races for fun. Recommended!

### 5/5 — Excellent little app

*2026-05-01*

Used this many times and the latest version is the best yet - with larger buttons and font. Nothing else like it that I can find, so I’m happy to have come across it

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for sticking with the app and for noticing the UX improvements in the latest update! Feedback like yours is exactly what motivates me to keep refining it. Really glad it’s been useful to you.

### 5/5 — Worth every penny

*2021-11-18*

What a simple and clever idea - so much easier to track times in races

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2021-09-29*

This app makes coaching cross country so much easier!  The only change I would request is the ability to change the font size on the clock so it is easier to read to call off split times as the runners pass.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2021-09-12*

I’ve used this app for 4 years. I am the timer for a children’s running series, and this is the best way I’ve found to keep record of finishers. The pictures work great for our social media, and we’ve never had a problem or glitch (other than me forgetting to hit start when I say go 🤪).

Other race coordinators in our nationwide running series still use stopwatches and clipboards… and parents complain about their results being inaccurate. We don’t have that problem.

Thank you.

### 4/5 — Works fine as described

*2021-02-02, version 1.70*

I have just started using your App for recording times for a running club. Works as described and just what we have been looking for.

I like the ability to export a csv file of times 

Couple of queries and suggestions:

1. I am using an iPhone 11 Pro, and the resolution is a bit ordinary compared to the normal camera app - is there anything I can do to improve the resolution?

2. A Zoom feature would be handy?

3. With the normal iPhone  camera, I can use the headphones up/down buttons as a shutter button- very handy when using a tripod, could this feature be added?

### 1/5 — Great concept, poor functionality and design

*2020-09-25*

I wanted this to work. The goal was to track a cross country race for a high school team where three people could use the app (each person buying the app of course). They would start the timer at the start and each person could photo the runners at a specific spot on the course (1 mile, 2 mile, and Finish). This would record split times and photo each team member at that spot. 

This app only Starts a timer and only takes photos if you hit the Lap button. There’s no other way to take a photo thus causing a challenge with getting their times recorded at a special spot on the course. 

If you Stop a timer, you can’t Start it up again with our resetting the timer or leaving the app and coming back into it. That then loses all your times.

Summary, no camera option for photos and the timer doesn’t work properly. Please save your money if the app isn’t updated to correct these issues.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work w/ XS on iOS 12

*2018-09-25*

I keep getting an error saying the app couldn’t save the photo, but it actually is saving it just fine. It happens every time I press the split button which makes the app unusable.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear that. Please check in Settings of your iPhone, find the icon for StopW + Cam and make sure it has read/write access to your photos. If the problem continues please send me an email to Stopwcam@gmail.com to verify more items. I just tested it and it worked fine.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2016-09-29, version 1.5*

Great simple app that does exactly what is needed. No problems. 

Using it to record sailing results capturing time and sail numbers.
