A stopwatch built to actually measure

To the hundredth of a second

A precise display down to the hundredth, readable in large size and full screen.

Laps compared

Each lap time shows the gap from the previous lap; the best and worst lap stand out in color.

By keyboard

Space to start or stop, L for a lap, R to reset: your eyes stay on the action, not on the mouse.

Exportable times

Copy your laps to paste them into a spreadsheet, a training log, or a lab report.

Time your laps and sets during training

Track running, interval training, swimming lengths, circuit training: press L at each pass and the stopwatch records each lap's time along with the gap from the previous one. You immediately see if you're speeding up or slowing down, and the best and worst lap are highlighted. At the end of the session, copy the list of times to track your progress week after week.

Measure a precise time: a talk, an experiment, a game

Rehearsing a talk or a speech within a set time, measuring the duration of a fall or a reaction in a physics class, testing a speedrun, settling a tie in a quiz: a stopwatch precise to the hundredth of a second covers most needs. Full-screen mode lets you project it for a class or an audience, and the keyboard shortcuts save you from hunting for the button at the crucial moment.

Stopwatch or timer: which one should you use?

The stopwatch counts up from zero: it measures how long an action takes. If instead you want to be alerted after a set duration (cooking, Pomodoro, a break), use our “Online Timer” with alarm. And to show the time left before a specific event, our “Countdown Timer”.
