Ratings and Reviews
App correction
Hi, this simple app is user-friendly and in general works well. I would just like to alert the development team of a problem that needs correcting. On my iPhone 11 Pro adjusting the volume button also records a time. For example, today I wanted to increase the volume so that I could better hear when I have recorded a time, but that resulted in about 10 additional “people” being recorded!
Hope this can be fixed.
Screen sensitivity.
This is a nice application but I have found one disadvantage.
That is the whole bottom of the screen is touch sensitive. So in holding the iPhone or iPad it is possible to inadvertently touch the edge of the screen leading to accidental recording of times.
Is it possible to modify the app so that there is a button icon on the screen that does not extend to the edge of the screen?
I see that the volume buttons on my iPad can be used to record split time so the iPad can be used like a normal stop watch but this does not elevate the touch sensitivity problem.
Parkrun timer app
As a volunteer I’ve used this app several times. In general it works great ! The only negative is that the touch area is too large and close to the edge of your phone. This makes it easy to by mistake, touch the screen and add a unwanted time. Making the touch area slightly smaller with a border should resolve this problem. Also a function to remove the last time entered, should help incase above happens.
