About this app

A stopwatch, also known as chronometer or chronograph, is a watch with one or more hands that can be stopped or started at any instant, used for precise timing, as in races. A countdown timer allows backward timing from a preset time value to zero.

Chronometer is a reliable, easy to use time measuring app, ideal for various activities as running, workouts, cooking, games, or work. Its features include a stopwatch and a countdown timer. The app will continue the timing in background if minimized.

Stopwatch (chronometer, chronograph)

The stopwatch feature allows you to measure elapsed times. By using the corresponding buttons, the stopwatch can be started, paused, resumed, and reset. By pressing the "Lap" button you can record the current timing. In landscape mode, in addition to the elapsed time, you can see the number of laps, the last lap time and the current lap time.

Times

As you record laps with the stopwatch, the timings are added to a list in the "Times" view. The laps are ordered in descending order. For each lap in the list, you can see the lap number, the elapsed time, and the lap time. The elapsed time is the time past from the beginning of the measurement up to the moment when the lap was added. The lap time is the time past since the previous lap was added. At the bottom of the screen, you can see the average of your lap times. The "Save" button placed on the action bar allows you to share your list of lap times by sending it to one of the appropriate apps installed in your device (Gmail, Dropbox, Drive, Facebook, etc.).

Countdown Timer

The countdown timer feature allows you to set a timer. By using the corresponding buttons, the countdown can be started, paused, resumed, and reset. When time is up, you receive a notification, according to your settings: a sound alarm, a vibration, and / or a message on the notification bar (if the app is running in background). The "Set Timer" button placed on the action bar allows you to rapidly set the timer. In landscape mode, in addition to the time display, you can see the date and time when the countdown will finish.

Ratings and reviews

I needed a dedicated analogue stopwatch and this works beautifully! It has easy + comfortable seconds arm moving around a watch-like face yet shows an unobtrusive digital countdown at the top! Extra points for covering both bases! And it defaults to stopwatch on opening w/timer discreetly available (which I don't need so it doesn't bother me). (Only small issue is that it installs under the name Chronometer, so when you're putting it on the homescreen, it's found under "C" , not "S".)

The huge omission is that you cant set up countdown with clock face it self. In over apps you just turn 20-30 sec and tap start. But in this app you had to find where it set up, then chose numbers and so on. Need another 15/30/60 sec add to timer? Is it possible here? Good sport timer with shortcuts on the volume buttons. Without annoying ads as for now. Stopwatch are useless for a lot things of use.

Not obvious how to get to the countdown timer (you swipe). Tapping the graphic doesn't pause or reset, gotta use tiny buttons. Tapping the digits doesn't set countdown time, gotta use tiny toolbar button. Could definitely think broader about UI design.
