Pit Wall Stopwatch
Read full descriptionHide full description
Manual lap timing for your next trackside session. Pit Wall Stopwatch keeps up to four drivers in view, with separate clocks, recent laps, best laps, splits and gaps against the session best. Choose Full Panel for a large lap target that includes the clock and history. Hold for compact driver controls. Prefer separate buttons? Classic and Tap Board remain available. Correct mistakes without losing the session: undo the last completed lap, or reset a driver's clock while keeping completed laps and bests. Pause drivers individually, review the session summary and prepare a CSV to share through iOS. Timing works offline. Split controls can be hidden in Full Panel when you only need laps. The app remembers your display choices and offers to restore saved timing when you return. Optional usage analytics is off by default. If enabled, controls and layout choices are linked to a random installation ID to help improve the app. Driver names, lap times and CSV content stay on your device unless you choose to share them.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pit Wall Stopwatch at none against Start's 1. Start's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
