Stopwatch



Difficult to make it simpler. It's really just a stopwatch. Well, for Symbian Anna & Nokia Belle smartphones.

It has millisecond resolution. (But in fact it's really difficult to touch faster than 100 ms.)

It supports unlimited number of laps, has professionally looking design and intuitive user interface.

It has interactive embedded help.

And finally - it's very easy to use!


Just touch huge button with zeroes and timer will start:
Alternatively you can use small play button in the toolbar.


"Lap" button (or plus toolbar button ) adds row with total elapsed time and last lap time to the table:


You can pause it any time touching again the big button (or pause toolbar button).


When timer is paused you can clear the table and reset timer with "Clear" button (or use bin button in the toolbar). The application returns to the original state.
Or you can continue timer by touching the big button again.

    Hi..

    this looks like a nice app. Is it still being developed as I have a couple of suggestions for it?

    Thanks..

    Nick :)

      Hi!

      Thanks for your interest, but since Nokia have sold QT framework and closed down Symbian department, there is not much point in developing apps.
      But anyway, I would like to hear your ideas.

      Thanks again,

      Kuzma

    Thanks for the quick reply.

    I'm looking for a stopwatch and countdown app for my Nokia 808. All of the apps I have tried so far come up a bit short. I would like to find an app that supports lap and split times preferably with hundredths or thousandths of a second accuracy. Also, the ability to export the data to a txt or csv file would be very handy. For the countdown timer, I would like support for multiple timers which can be renamed and will be saved when the app is closed and reopened. Also, the option to disable the screensaver from starting would be extremely helpful too.

    I'd be happy to pay a few quid for an app that does all that, or nearly all that :)

    It's shame about Qt and Symbian. How difficult is it to get into developing?

    Thanks..

    Nick

      Accuracy of thousandths of a second is, to be honest, meaningless when you think about speed of human reaction and hardware touch recognition.

      Well, as a simplest option for a countdown app I would suggest using embedded reminders, also I guess there should be some apps in the store - but you're saying they all aren't good enough.
      Exporting results to a file looks easy, but your other requests, like locking screensaver and working in background, are actually rather difficult to implement.
      And we should not forget about alarm itself - it should be customisable and include sound and/or vibro - and it also adds good chunk of complexity.

      I'm really sorry that I cannot help you any more and hope you'll find what you're looking for.

      Good luck,
      Kuzma
