### 4/5 — Timer

*2024-01-19*

I really like this timer but I wish it would turn if I place my phone or iPad sideways

### 3/5 — Stopwatch

*2023-04-14*

They stopwatch freezes up sometimes. Not sure if it’s my phone or the app. Wish you could pull up a history of previous laps.

### 4/5 — Best looking stopwatch app...but...

*2021-02-26, version 1.2.7*

Is it at all possible to create a timer feature in this app? Or an accompanying timer app that’s as beautiful as this stopwatch app!?

### 2/5 — It’s ok, maybe.

*2020-03-08, version 1.2.7*

It’s really only useful for lap timing if you pay the $2.99, because it will force you to watch an ad before you can hit the lap button. I paid that, and now this “rate this app” thing keeps popping up and interrupting my ability to hit the lap button. So, maybe now it’ll work properly since I’m writing this review to get it to stop nagging me and let me use the app I paid $2.99 for as intended. We’ll see.

### 3/5 — its good but

*2020-02-05, version 1.2.7*

I cannut change the language

### 1/5 — Obtrusive ads

*2019-09-07, version 1.2.7*

FOR A BASIC STOPWATCH. REALLY?

### 4/5 — Nice

*2019-07-20, version 1.2.7*

Very good. Wish it had a more effective data log for tracking averages and variance over time.

### 4/5 — Stopwatch Tryout

*2019-07-17, version 1.2.7*

Works great, really whooped with the Masonic hand. They limp. Good stopwatch, professional.

### 1/5 — Lap button randomly doesn’t work

*2019-03-31, version 1.2.7*

Lap button randomly doesn’t work

### 4/5 — Almost perfect for my needs

*2019-01-19, version 1.2.7*

Love that this app keeps the splits and the total time at that point of that split so I can easily see if my runner is on pace. This app would be perfect if I could use the volume buttons to control it.  It can be difficult in the moment to watch my runner cross the finish on the split and hit the button on the screen in the right spot and not double press it either. Five stars coming with that change!  Also I just remembered that this little button below the watch and above the virtual home button on my iPhone X is inaccessible because it is so close to the home graphic.  Not sure if it is a button or not but I can’t access it. Seems like you would swipe up on it but that just goes to app switching.

### 2/5 — Ads make it waaaaaaay too frustrating.

*2018-12-30, version 1.2.7*

Nicely designed app but, they ruined it for money.  As soon as you open the app, an ad pops up obscuring the entire screen.  I don’t mind a few ads but, this is ridiculous.  If you’re in a hurry to start timing something, you’re going to have to wait.  This is too much for me.  I’ll use the stopwatch feature of the iPad clock.  Deleted!

### 4/5 — Ads

*2018-09-26, version 1.2.7*

I would happily pay to get rid of the ads but can’t find any means of doing so. Otherwise simple and straightforward.

### 2/5 — Adds

*2018-08-29, version 1.2.7*

Ok I get that you need adds to make money.  But as I was timing something an add popped up and I couldn’t stop rid of it for 30 seconds, completely ruining what I was timing, so yeah thanks

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! You can remove ads in the app.

### 1/5 — Spyware? Beware.

*2024-01-10*

If I copy something onto the clipboard and launch this app, it asks if I want to allow the app to paste from the clipboard. Of course, I answer “Don’t allow”.

Why would a stop watch app need to paste from the clipboard unless it is sending that information back to a server?  Is it spyware that is just looking for nuggets of potentially useful information that could be private or sensitive?

I think I will uninstall this app even though I paid to get rid of ads.

### 1/5 — Not the best

*2023-02-09, version 1.2.7*

Not the best size (too small) pressure/tap response of screen buttons. And it’s not the device

### 1/5 — Interrupts when trying to use

*2022-12-17, version 1.2.7*

Used to work, now they keep asking for a rating every time I go to start and I have missed several times so I am deleting this app.

### 1/5 — Buttons stop working

*2022-01-22, version 1.2.7*

I have tried this app multiple times trying to record laps in distance races. Sometimes I can get through a 3200 all 16 laps. But many times that lap button stops working and I have to restart the app. Very frustrating. Sometimes the start and stop toggle buttons even get reversed! “Stop” starts and “Start” stops the monitoring.

Sorry. This app needs some work.

### 1/5 — No longer worth it

*2021-05-03, version 1.2.7*

I’ve used this app for a couple of years. In the last few months it has gotten mostly unusable.  For instance, if you press Stop, to pause, you can no longer start again by pressing either the button on the side of the stopwatch or the button at the bottom.  Be tried deleting and re-downloading - no luck.  Now you have to listen to loud video ads every time you start timing.  This essentially forces you to pay for the upgrade because it’s so annoying.  I’d pay $2.99 to stop that if the app worked.  Since it doesn’t, it’s time to delete and find another one.

### 1/5 — Too many ads!!!

*2021-05-02, version 1.2.7*

Way too many ads for this app to be useful

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2020-07-31, version 1.2.7*

Purchased because I was sick of my iPhone deleting stopwatch data. True, this app won’t spontaneously delete data. But the buttons are very small and nearly illegible, same with the times of the laps. Ads pop up in the middle of a sprint, so I can’t just press “lap” I have to clear ads which slows my pace and makes timing inaccurate. Ended up accidentally deleting 30 minutes of data anyway because of the poor labeling and there is no way to retrieve it. Will be deleting today.

### 1/5 — Ads pop up

*2020-05-13, version 1.2.7*

I cannot track a lap accurately because every time I to hit the lap button a ad pops up

### 1/5 — Untrustworthy!!!

*2019-11-27, version 1.2.7*

I can’t believe I paid for this. I have to frequently restart the app because it locks up. It Stops working so often that I can’t trust it to use for my kids swim meets. Very easy to think you pushed the start or lap and nothing happens. If you can’t trust a stopwatch to work then the app is useless. It’s not ok to me to work 80% if the time.

### 1/5 — Locks while trying to time kids.

*2019-09-23, version 1.2.7*

Lap button locks very upset paid for this app for my cross country meets now not sure what I am going to do

### 5/5 — Best stopwatch since Switzerland took a dive

*2023-08-31*

It looks like a real stopwatch and sounds like a real stopwatch. Happy days are here again.

### 5/5 — Yes

*2022-11-02, version 1.2.7*

Good free watch! Would recommend.

### 5/5 — simplicity

*2020-03-18, version 1.2.7*

Works well like a real stop watch with no needless gadgets.

### 5/5 — Works perfectly

*2020-01-02, version 1.2.7*

Need an app for timing service calls that can last for several hours, needed it to run in the background and be able to stop and start for lunch breaks. Works perfectly! Tried other apps but they wouldn’t run long enough.

### 5/5 — I really love this stopwatch.This stopwatch is cool

*2019-05-29, version 1.2.7*

I really like it,fourth grade friend

### 5/5 — Good joy

*2019-04-04, version 1.2.7*

Buen trabajo para el q creó esa aplicación 🙏

### 5/5 — The best and most simple

*2018-09-23, version 1.2.7*

Screen stays on.   Right on !!

### 5/5 — Simple

*2018-08-09, version 1.2.7*

This is very simple and easy to use

### 5/5 — Share option

*2018-06-24, version 1.2.7*

Sharing of times and laps with changes!! works great.
5 stars

### 5/5 — Good Program

*2018-05-12, version 1.2.6*

Like how the program is displayed. How the time splits are shown. The interface. Being able to share your splits is nice as well. 

Ads can get annoying but you expect it in a free app.
