Competition timers are changing. Today it's the 2-Pad two-point start; next comes the 4-Pad four-point start you see on the Stackmat G5. If the first time you touch four pads is at a competition, it's going to feel wrong. ccPad lets you practice it now, on your iPhone or iPad. Lay it flat in landscape, hold all four pads, lift when the light turns green, slap to stop — the exact same motion as the G5. Switch to two-point mode and it's today's competition setup. Works for cubing and sport stacking alike. More than a timer: · 4-point, 2-point or 1-point start and stop — match whatever the rules say · Scrambles, inspection, one-tap +2 / DNF · Spoken results, so you never look down at the screen · Multiple skins to keep practice fresh · Times stay on this device — no account needed Try it free. Membership unlocks unlimited timing and every skin. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://www.qinggetech.cn/ccpad-privacy/
