Swimtoolz StopWatch is a stopwatch for swim coaches and parents. I've included unique features that I hope will make your pool-side experience a little more interesting and productive. + You can set a goal time and race parameters. This feature enables a progress bar and count-down timers giving instant feedback on your swimmer's progress anywhere in the pool as they strive to stay ahead of their goal.

(The in-app purchase enables unlimited strokes per race.) + You can fix mistakes. For instance if you pressed "stop" instead of "split" there is a way to correct that. Or if you forgot to hit "split" there is a way to insert an estimated or actual missing split later. + pace goals can be programmed for the dive segment. Everyone is faster during the first 15 meters after a dive. + Handy buttons allow you to configure the location of starting blocks and the pool size. + Although collecting splits is limited to a single swimmer in a race, you can record and save the finish time of multiple swimmers in the same race. + Your swimmer's splits are automatically plotted on a graph.
