Thank you

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2026-07-15, version 0.0.6*

So useful, organized, and helpful. Best part is there are no ads or in-app purchases! Thank you for making this app :)

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-12, version 0.0.6*

Great

### 5/5 — Soggy biscuit enters the modern era

*2026-07-07*

Competitors are all timed. No more photo finishes, no more tie breakers.

**Developer response:** Thanks! No more arguing about who touched first.

### 5/5 — Request to Rate Every time I Open App

*2026-07-01*

I’ve only had the app installed for a few days and I’m still trying to get comfortable using it, but I’ve been badgered to rate the app every time I open it and it’s getting annoying. I dismiss, it pops back up. So far the app has just been an average timer app, not sure what else I can say at this point but reviewing to hopefully remove the constant “please rate me” notifications.

**Developer response:** Sorry about that, I know it's annoying. It should stop popping up once you go through the prompt once without dismissing it. As a solo developer without a marketing budget, that prompt is basically how people find Stopwatch. If going through it once fixes things, I'd appreciate a bump to 5 stars. Feel free to email kai@amicu.app if it keeps showing up. Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Cool

*2026-06-28*

Great clean app

**Developer response:** Thank you! Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Free and great

*2026-06-21*

I’ve needed multiple stopwatches and multiple, MULTIPLE times in my life and they are all behind pay walls and then I found this guy! You can just add and add them, and most importantly you can actually name them. Fantastic

**Developer response:** Happy you found it useful, Gavin! Thanks for the review. - Kai

### 5/5 — Time tracking made precise

*2026-06-14, version 0.0.6*

I have just started using this, i’m hopping i could use this as a tool that helps me track and analyze my time

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-06-14, version 0.0.6*

Good

### 5/5 — Stopwatch°

*2026-06-10, version 0.0.6*

This app delivers as advertised. Provides all the essential functions in a clean, straightforward interface.

### 5/5 — Just what is needed

*2026-06-06*

This app just elevates to another level with the simple fact that you can keep record of all past stopwatches

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! Being able to look back at past sessions is one of my favorite parts of the app too. Best, Kai

### 5/5 — It good

*2026-05-28*

Clock good, very help

**Developer response:** Thanks! Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2026-05-27, version 0.0.6*

Well made stopwatch app and it doesn’t eat all of my battery! Thank you for making this app

### 5/5 — Gut

*2026-05-22, version 0.0.6*

👍🏽

### 5/5 — Does everything I need

*2026-05-20*

I wanted a app to keep individual measurements of multiple timescales, this app does it perfectly. A++ very happy

**Developer response:** Appreciate the A++, Carl. Enjoy!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-05-05, version 0.0.6*

Excellent stop watch app, I use it for training firefighters on timed drills.  I can name each one and have different shifts.  Works well.

### 5/5 — Helps me see alittle easier outside on a sunny day

*2026-05-05*

I use this as a stop watch and with the one the iPhone originally came with it’s hard to see where the stop button is when I’m crossing the finish line. I end up finding it around 5 seconds after. But this app allows the stop button to be seen much more clearer and it’s bigger making it convenient also from missing it

**Developer response:** Thank you! A stop button that's big and easy to hit exactly when you need it — that's what I was going for. Really glad it's making a difference at the finish line! — Kai

### 1/5 — need some improve

*2025-09-09*

uselessness

**Developer response:** Please write me an email to kai@amicu.app with actionable feedback. From your review I can only tell that you experienced issues, but not what should be improved. Best, Kai

### 2/5 — Annoying

*2026-01-12, version 0.0.6*

I’d give the app a higher rating if it stopped asking me to give it a review, even after I already have.

### 4/5 — Like it!

*2026-07-21, version 0.0.6*

I like that you can have multiple stop watches going at the same time and for different tasks.

### 4/5 — Practical

*2026-06-22, version 0.0.6*

Good app. Does what it needs to.

### 4/5 — Does what it needs to

*2026-05-07*

Helps me keep track of multiple tasks being done. The naming feature is very useful. Would be nice to be able to go full screen with any of the saved watches and not the seperate one

**Developer response:** Thanks! Really glad the naming feature is working well for you. The idea of going full screen with any saved watch is a nice one — I'll keep it in mind. If you have more to share, feel free to reach out at kai@amicu.app. And if you're enjoying the app, I'd love it if you considered bumping your rating to 5 stars — as a solo dev with no ad budget, every star helps! — Kai

### 4/5 — So far so good - but the app asks for ratings too soon.

*2026-04-19*

So far the app is just what I was looking for, but it’s spamming me to rate it too early. I would rather the app periodically ask for rating after I’ve already used it for a while.

**Developer response:** Thank you! Really glad Stopwatch is doing the job. Sorry about the rating prompt — as a solo dev with no marketing budget, reviews are how people discover the app, so I do ask. My other apps have a setting to disable the prompt entirely, but I'm afraid I forgot to add that to Stopwatch — sorry about that. Once you've gone through all the dialogs fully, it shouldn't appear again. If anything else comes up, feel free to reach out at kai@amicu.app. — Kai

### 4/5 — 👍

*2026-03-30*

👍

**Developer response:** Thanks for the thumbs up! If Stopwatch is doing the job for you, I'd love it if you'd consider bumping your rating to 5 stars — as a solo developer, every rating helps. — Kai

### 4/5 — Useful

*2025-12-29, version 0.0.6*

Better than apple stopwatch, which when I reset it, tends to go back to whereas if I never reset it—be it hours or days. My main stopwatch now.

### 4/5 — The app is amazing with one missing feature

*2025-11-22*

I am right handed, so it would be so much better if the buttons were on the right, and the stopwatches on the left, it seems like a small fix, but it will mean alot for a bunch of users, me included. 

Thx 😊

**Developer response:** I didn’t think of this before, but it’s true that the buttons are easier to reach with a thumb depending on whether someone is right or left handed. I can consider some setting for a future update. Best, Kai

### 4/5 — Solid Stopwatch App

*2025-09-19*

Can organize them in folders and by name the stopwatches. No in app purchases. Would like to see bit more saving and naming and organizing of times so that we can analyze and look back. But UI is great and app is simple to use.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Nice, simple, functional

*2026-08-27*

Thanks for making this available!!! The creator is very responsive to requests and inquiries: an issue with being able to copy to clipboard was fixed between versions 0.0.8 and 0.0.9.

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to write this! Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Would be very useful

*2026-08-25*

I use this Stopwatch​ every single day my entire day to track my productivity splits. I’ve tried every single stopwatch and yours is the only one u can individually name the laps which is the whole reason why I started used it. If u can add a feature that tells u in real time when each lap happened u would make my life a lot easier and I’m sure people would like it. If I were to say how to design it put it in the big stopwatch and put the real time in between the lap number and the split time. I really hope u see this and put it in settings it doesn’t have to be toggled on for everyone

**Developer response:** Thanks, Dylan. That's a good idea for a future update, and I'll keep it in mind. If you have more thoughts on how you'd use it, please email me at kai@amicu.app. Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Just what I was looking for

*2026-08-25*

When I have challenges or want to see how long it has been since I’ve done things the stop watch is very useful, who says you can’t time multiple things at once? The way that it automatically converts it to days once it gets to 24H is a nice touch that helps with the math. My favorite feature is that it almost behaves like a notes app but for time, with folders, naming, which is great for keeping track of things. Over all  the design is great and I can tell a lot of thought and consideration went into including all the small but appreciated features.

**Developer response:** Thank you for this wonderful review, AloisBelladonna! It's great to hear that the multi-timer support, auto-conversion to days, and folder/naming features are exactly what you were looking for. Knowing the app fits naturally into your routine really means a lot. Hope it keeps being useful! — Kai

### 5/5 — changed my life

*2026-08-23*

update 2026-08-22Sun
Do you think this app could record the start and end times for each lap???

I started to track how long I take for each task of my day, so I became a much accurate proactive planner 

thank you for allowing users to rename the lap names

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing this. I'm happy the lap names help you keep your day organized. Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Best in the game

*2026-08-10*

Best stopwatch ever ✨✨✨

**Developer response:** Thank you! Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Easy, impressive range of features

*2026-08-08*

My dog is taking prednisone and I needed an app to track her pee time, to get a better idea of when she needs to go out. I needed an app that can record and save multiple events for not only the thing being timed, but also the time of day and date when it was recorded, and export the data for analysis elsewhere. This app handles all those needs perfectly. And things like folder organization and tapping anywhere on the stopwatch bar to start/stop make it even more useful. And free with no ads … what more could I ask for? A big thanks to the developer!

**Developer response:** Thank you for such a detailed review. I'm happy Stopwatch fits your routine and that the saved records and export are useful. Best, Kai

### 5/5 — changed my life

*2026-08-02*

I started to track how long I take for each task of mg day, so I became a much accurate proactive planner 

thank you for allowing users to rename the lap names

**Developer response:** Thanks for sharing this. I'm happy the lap names help you keep your day organized. Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Good for broken iOS

*2026-07-31, version 0.0.6*

If your stopwatch is broken from the new iOS updates come here!

### 5/5 — Amazing multi stopwatch app!

*2026-07-29*

I needed a stopwatch to time how long I spend on separate projects. This app is amazing and have experienced zero ads or in app purchases. You’re able to customize different folders and names to your stopwatches. Also run multiple at once. You can have the timer running while using other apps, locker screen, and even with the app closed!! It truly is a great app. Thank you to the developers this is exactly what I needed that the standard Apple stopwatch could not provide.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the detailed review. Happy Stopwatch helps you track separate projects and run several timers at once. Best, Kai

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-07-26*

I’m an ADHD crocheter who sells my items at local markets. To make sure I’m charging a fair price, I track how long an item takes me to complete from start to finish. But, given the diagnosis, I often work on multiple projects at once so that I don’t get bored and quit. The native stopwatch in my iPhone doesn’t allow me to create multiple stopwatches, so I’ve been writing it down, which I don’t like having to log everything manually. I tried an online stopwatch, but it would reset the time(s) whenever I would switch to a different app - I use a lot of patterns that are saved to my Books app. I figured there had to be SOMETHING that would let me easily have multiple stopwatches going. I downloaded a few other ones that required payment before I found this one that is exactly what I wanted/needed. It’s simple, easy to use, no frills. Highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Thank you for the detailed review. Happy it makes tracking several projects easier. Best, Kai
