Win the pin!
Sailing race start timer
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
Pin to Win is the simplest sailing race start timer for Apple Watch. Hit your line with the
same 5- and 3-minute countdowns race officers run — with big glanceable digits, every classic
audio signal according to Appendix U, and a sync-to-minute button right on your wrist.
WHAT IT DOES
• 3- or 5-minute countdown, switchable in settings
• Sync to snap to the current minute when you're late off the line
• +1 to add a minute when the start is postponed
• Reset to start over instantly
• Flips to count-up after the gun so you can track race elapsed time
EVERY SIGNAL YOU EXPECT
• N long beeps at every minute mark (5, 4, 3, 2, 1)
• Halfway warnings: 2 long + 3 short at 2:30, 1 long + 3 short at 1:30
• 3 short at 0:30, 2 short at 0:20, 1 short at 0:10
• A short beep every second through the final five
• A 3-second start tone at zero
Every audible signal also fires a haptic so you feel it even when the wind drowns out the
watch speaker.
DESIGNED FOR THE BOAT
High-contrast digits stay readable in the sun. The background fills from bottom to top as the
countdown drains, so you always know how much time is left from a glance. The screen flashes
red ↔ white through the final five seconds — you can't miss the gun.
PHONE COMPANION
The iPhone app mirrors the watch live. Start, sync, +1, or reset from either device — they
stay in sync. The watch keeps running standalone if your phone drifts out of range during the
race.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No accounts, no ads, no data collection. Everything stays on your devices.

Apple Watch: the start sequence now reliably keeps running with your wrist down, so beeps and haptics fire on time throughout the entire countdown — even when you're not looking at the watch.
