Ratings and reviews

Great app. Perfect for what it is -- simple, unobtrusive timer or stopwatch that floats over other apps. Two tiny complains -- no instructions. I felt silly wrestling with it for a few minutes before realizing a single tap starts and stops the stopwatch, and double tap resets the time. And the other thing is I'd really love to be able to adjust the size. I don't really need the color changing options, but if adjusting the size was a premium feature, I'd happily dish out a buck for it.

This app is great because it's open source and doesn't have ads, but there are still many issues. I would like to customize the look of the stopwatch, for example, show milliseconds, make it round, and other things. I also have not found a way to reset the stopwatch. One way is just to use double tap to reset it. Also, creating a stopwatch while another is on screen breaks the app, I can't move the stopwatch, tapping on it does nothing besides activate whatever is under it.

Exactly what I was looking for. I went to change the size and saw the only"setting" that I was able to change was the color, for 49 cents. As I didn't care so much about the color I paid the 49 cents anyway because this is perfect for what I need (i.e. a stopwatch) A stopwatch that stays on top of the app you're using. We need to support Devs like this. If they add an option to change the size I'd pay another 49 cents.... but 98 cents I'd my limit ;-)
