Stoppuhr-Modus The stopwatch has the splitting function: each time you press the start-button, the stopwatch stops and starts all over again to count. The result is recorded in a window and can be viewed afterwards. You can also activate a beep for every second - it also works with a headset. The reset-button resets the window with the results. 3. Countdown-Modus The countdown with 1/100 second accuracy, works at single and concatenated mode. When you insert the time of the tests, you can define that the departure occurs automatically or manually. Each time you press the start-button, the current countdown stops and the next one starts. The result is recorded in a window and can be viewed afterwards. The reset-button resets the results-window and reactivates the stored times. You can enter different stages with different sectors so that the concatenated mode only from sector to sector. After the last sector, the timer stops and the green button is disabled. To reactivate the "Start" you press the "Stop". 4.

Speedpilot Speedpilot indicates the average speed not only with nummeri but visually with a progress indicator. 7. Speedometer Displays the current speed . * GPS/GNSS This app uses GNSS if it is supported by the device. GNSS is a collective term for the use of existing global satellite systems such as: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou. * Distance measurement with wheel sensor (sensor-kit) or GPS The app can evaluate / measure the distance traveled with a wheel sensor or with GPS. Please note that GPS can only provide reliable measurements on open terrain. Therefore, please do not write any negative reviews if the app cannot provide reliable measurements in such cases. For this reason I recommend the use of a wheel sensor (sensor kit) for mountain areas. You use for the Start, the green software button "Start". For the start can be used of an external Bluetooth-device. Further information at: https://filippo-software.de * A full version can be purchased via the In-App Purchase option.
