Ratings and reviews

It appears the time sync with the aromic clock is not accurate or has a lag. this causes huge swings in calculated "accuracy" of watches. My quartz was running +1.1 seconds which was probably close to correct, the next day it says its 102 seconds fast. I rechecked it with the atomic clock on the internet and it was spot on. If it was consistent this would be a great app, unfortunately, its not worth it if it cannot do its job well.

Tap the button when the second hand reaches 12? I'm using an old pocket watch that doesn't have (never had) a second hand! This app is totally useless! No, it's NOT useless. The width of the minute hand is the same as the width of the minute marks on the dial, and if I watch the watch with a loupe I can tell to the second when the minute hand is pointing exactly at a mark. It will work—especially since the watch was built as a "dollar watch" and isn't all that accurate to begin with.

New findings: after solving the problem with signing in, now time anchor for so called "accuracy checking" is very inconsistent everytime you open this app. Hence, the accuracy result is swinging extremely. One time it's spot on, next check within a week says -10, and then going to +12 another week. Note here that i'm measuring a Spring Drive movement, which is consistently gain/loss only 1 second per every month when comparing with the atomic clock for the last 4 month.
