Stopwatch Journal
Read full descriptionHide full description
Stopwatch Journal is a precise stopwatch and countdown timer that remembers every run. Instead of timing something and losing the result the moment you reset, Stopwatch Journal saves each session — elapsed time, mode, and every lap — to a journal you can revisit, review, and analyze. Time your way with two modes. Use count-up to measure how long something takes, or set a target and use count-down for intervals, workouts, cooking, and focus sessions. Record laps while the clock runs to break a session into meaningful splits, then keep them for later. Everything you time is saved automatically: - Capture laps with split and total times as you go - Browse past runs in a clean History tab - Spot trends and patterns in the Analysis tab - Choose from multiple stopwatch faces to suit your style - Import and export your journal to move it between devices Stopwatch Journal is designed for practical, repeatable use — training splits, study intervals, kitchen timers, practice sessions, or any routine worth measuring. The interface stays out of your way so you can start, lap, and save in seconds, then come back later to see your progress. Available in many languages with light and dark themes, Stopwatch Journal gives you a dependable timing companion that keeps a full record of your work — not just the current run.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Viscount at none against Stopwatch Journal's shown. Viscount also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Stopwatch Journal's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 46 months) and device support (4 vs 2). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
