PsyTimer Stopwatch 2 vs HandMeasureAR

The PsyTimer Stopwatch 2 combines a stopwatch with an alarm clock. Thus, it may time an interval and warn when a pre-set time limit is reached at the same time. The PsyTimer Stopwatch 2 is carefully designed to present elapsed and remaining time as well as available options in a simple and distinct way. Prominently, a digital time display as well as an analogue clock is presented concurrently. The timing is very precise as it is continuously computed as the time elapsed since the timing was started. Thus, there is no accumulation of small timing errors. The PsyTimer Stopwatch 2 may be used in many different situations. The author first developed it for testing of intelligence and neuropsychological testing, but it has found many other uses, e.g. presentations, speeches, laboratories and broadcasting. Features: - Elapsed time will feature on a digital display as well as on an analogue clock. This makes it easy to collect information during testing, presentations, and other tasks that may demand most of your attention. - All functions can be accessed easily. A big Start-Stop button can be found at the bottom of the display where it is easy to reach, even while your are attending to the task, you are timing. - It is also easy to choose among pre-set time limits on the primary stopwatch display. - The display will not turn off while you are using the stopwatch. - The digital display will change color when the time limit has been reached. You can also choose for a sound signal to emit at this point (optional), and the screen may flash one or more times (optional). - A progress bar will display the elapsed time if a time limit has been chosen. - It is possible to select among a number of sounds for the alarm signal, including short and quiet sounds as well as long, loud, and attention catching sounds. - The main digital display may show either minutes and seconds, or the total number of seconds elapsed. - The repeat function makes it possible to cycle an interval. A cycle count is displayed (The author uses this for a concentration test, where the assessor has to give a prompt every 20 seconds). - You can choose to have the Reset button to the right or to the left of the Start-Stop button (for single hand use for both right and left handers). - A history log of previous timings. - Landscape view. You will probably want to put your iPhone in "Airplane Mode" when using the stopwatch for tasks like testing and presentations in order to avoid calls, mails etc. This app is continuously maintained. You might suggest a feature you miss: mail@cognisoft.dk. However, I will not include features that will impede the functionality and simplicity for the primary intended uses of the stopwatch.

Discover your hand size, span, and proportions with camera-guided measurements. Measure feet and everyday objects, compare hand ratios, or take a playful break with finger games. HAND MEASURE Place an open hand in view to see hand length, thumb-to-pinky span, and colored measurement guides. Switch between inches and centimeters. Tap to freeze the view, or hold steady for automatic capture. Explore individual finger lengths, thumb-to-index span, knuckle width, and palm length. Show or hide measurement lines to focus on what interests you. DEPTH WHEN AVAILABLE Supported front cameras use TrueDepth, and supported back cameras use LiDAR. When usable depth is unavailable, measurements use a hand-length reference. Adjust that reference using a physical ruler for a more personalized scale. EXPLORE HAND PROPORTIONS Size is only part of the picture. Ratio mode compares knuckle width, palm length, and hand span with hand length. Compare straight wrist-to-fingertip distances with wrist-to-middle-fingertip distance, shown as 1.00. Compact colored bars make proportions easy to understand. Thumb, index, and ring ratios are included without an upgrade. CUSTOM MEASURE: FEET AND MORE Place two points to measure a distance. Tap directly on the camera view, or aim the center crosshair and tap Add point. Adjust endpoints, delete individual lines, and switch between inches, centimeters, and ratios. In ratio mode, the first line becomes your reference. For feet, measure heel to toe, then add a width measurement. Open the shoe-size calculator to explore estimates and a size chart. Always check the specific brand’s sizing guidance before buying shoes. TAKE A PLAY BREAK • Finger Treadmill: walk your fingers across the screen, track distance and pace, and review your run history. • Thumb Pinky Switch: alternate thumb and pinky poses with both hands. • Tip Spark: reach numbered targets with the matching fingertip—or your wrist. • Palm Compass: flip and rotate your hand to match the cue. • Lotus Garden: spread your fingers to bring a garden into bloom. • Lotus Breathing: unfold a lotus with optional breathing guidance. Additional activities include two-hand pose matching, rising pose challenges, hand-controlled music, and arcade games. OPTIONAL LIFETIME ADVANCED Hand length, thumb-to-pinky span, selected ratios, and several activities are included without an upgrade. A one-time Lifetime Advanced purchase unlocks additional measurements, proportions, selected games, and advanced treadmill features. No subscription. Purchase details are shown in the app. PRIVACY Camera images are processed on your device and are not uploaded. You choose whether to capture and share measurement results. IMPORTANT TO KNOW Measurements, ratios, and shoe sizes are estimates—not certified ruler readings, medical measurements, or professional fitting advice. Results depend on lighting, camera angle, pose, tracking quality, reference accuracy, and device capabilities. Hand span changes with finger spread. Use a physical ruler when precision matters. Depth and AR features require compatible hardware. Camera activities need visible hand landmarks and do not assess health, strength, mobility, or dexterity. Keep movements comfortable and never force a pose.
