This app allows you to start/stop the stopwatch without using your hands. It is useful especially, you are using both hands and can't start/stop. This app is depending on Apple's speech recognition API and not suitable for .1 sec accuracy. However, you can get rough idea of time length. It will have a delay at start and end as well, so it will cancel out and will not be far apart. User can use commands as start, go, stop, end, finish. Use case example: Hand stand, cooking, maker stuff, etc...
