Create up to 8 stopwatches, name each one after your athletes, and start them all simultaneously when the race begins. Lap each runner individually as they pass, then save the entire session with a name (ex: "1600m Heat 1") when you're done. Every session is saved to your history. Tap any past session to review each athlete's split times in full detail. - Built for track and field coaches: Name each stopwatch after your athletes. Start them together, lap them individually, and keep a permanent record of every session. - Individual and group controls: Control every stopwatch at once with Start All, Stop All, Lap All, and Reset All - or manage each one independently. - Full session history: Every session is saved with its name, date, and complete split data for every athlete. Never lose a result. - Edit timing mistakes: Accidentally click lap at the wrong time? Edit each runner's individual splits to portray the correct result. - Designed for real conditions: Clean, high-contrast display that's easy to read trackside. Light mode and Dark mode. Reorder stopwatches to match your heat sheet.
