Read full description

A precision stopwatch for people who actually use their timing data — and who want the app to look the way they like while they do it. TIME WITH PRECISION Millisecond accuracy, with timing that keeps running when you leave the app or lock your screen. Start, stop, pause and resume as your activity demands. RECORD EVERY SEGMENT Capture laps and splits with a tap. Read them as laps, as splits, or both at once. Every segment is numbered and timed — including the final stretch from your last lap to the stop. SEE WHAT THE NUMBERS MEAN Fastest and slowest laps are marked for you. Averages, totals and lap counts update as you go. Go deeper with the lap breakdown, the session timeline and the trend chart to see how your pace changed across the whole session. Pause statistics record how often you stopped, and for how long. KEEP YOUR SESSIONS Save any session, or switch on Auto-Save and stop thinking about it. Saved sessions keep their laps, statistics and timing intact for as long as you want them. EDIT WHAT YOU RECORDED Rename a session. Name individual laps — "warm-up", "set 3", "the hill". Add notes while it is fresh. Delete a lap you logged by mistake. Your record should describe what actually happened. SHARE AND EXPORT Share a single session with exactly the data you choose, or export the lot. Three formats: TXT to read, CSV for spreadsheets and time tracking, JSON for everything else. Set the time precision so exports match what you need downstream. MAKE IT YOURS Move, resize and swap the panels until the layout fits your hands and your activity. Choose from 12 timer fonts, size each timer independently and tune the spacing between them. Pick colours, gradients or your own photos for the background. Apply a panel style — Clean, Frosted, Retro LCD, Minimal, Mono Card, Neon or Elevated — with one tap. Full light and dark mode. BUILT RIGHT No ads. Twenty languages. Sound and haptic feedback you can switch off. Portrait and landscape, with a distraction-free full-screen mode. TICANO STOPWATCH PRO Unlock advanced lap analysis — the Clock, Timeline and Stats tabs — every panel style preset, and unlimited custom colours, gradients and background images.
