I really like this stopwatch because it can prevent screen dimming so you can see it all the time... But you had better have your phone plugged into the wall for any long timing because the app drains the battery faster than anything I've experienced. The iPhone actually gets hot while its timing in constant display mode. When timing with the display off it doesn't seem to use any more power than the the built in Apple stopwatch. So yes I use it for short timing (usually plugged in). What I've found to be the best use for this app is for my monthly battery full discharge app. Nothing will drain the battery down to zero faster than this app. So it has a dual function! If it could only log the time to phone shutdown, then it would be a great app to keep track of the battery's state of health.

I used the timer tonight to try and keep track of my steaks on the grill. When the phone powered down after a couple of minutes and I unlocked the phone, the timer was at 95 minutes. I tried a second time and the timer did the same thing, it showed 95 minutes. At this point I deleted the app and started another timer that actually worked. I don’t remember if this was a paid app or not, it certainly not worth the download time. It almost messed up two 2” filets!!!

I am in the media production industry and use this stopwatch daily, many times a day. It is indispensable to me. I’ve also gotten many compliments on the simple but well designed and attractive interface.Thanks for the latest update.

I just don’t understand why with all the timer apps out there, why don’t someone make a timer app that shows in one hundredths of a second. They have stop watch apps with one hundredths of a second so why not have timers like that? What’s the big deal? It can’t be difficult to do.
