Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the stopwatch timing?
Our stopwatch is accurate to the millisecond level, updating every 10 milliseconds. This precision makes it suitable for professional timing needs in sports, fitness training, and productivity tracking.
Can I use keyboard shortcuts to control the stopwatch?
Yes! You can use the following keyboard shortcuts: Spacebar to start/stop the timer, ‘R’ key to reset, and ‘L’ key to record a lap time (only when the timer is running).
What’s the difference between “Total Time” and “Split” time in lap records?
Total Time shows the elapsed time from when you first started the stopwatch to when that lap was recorded. Split time shows the duration of just that specific lap – the time between the current lap and the previous one.
Is there a limit to how many laps I can record?
No, there’s no built-in limit to the number of lap times you can record. However, for optimal performance, we recommend resetting after extended use with many laps recorded.
Does the stopwatch work on mobile devices?
Absolutely! The stopwatch is fully responsive and optimized for mobile devices. The interface adapts to smaller screens while maintaining full functionality and precision.
Can I continue timing after stopping the stopwatch?
Yes, when you press “Stop,” the timer pauses but retains the elapsed time. Pressing “Start” again will continue from where you left off. Use “Reset” only when you want to start timing from zero.
What happens if I accidentally close the browser or refresh the page?
The stopwatch will reset if you close the browser or refresh the page. Unfortunately, the current timing and lap records cannot be recovered. For important timing sessions, avoid closing the browser tab.
Can I record a lap while the timer is stopped?
No, the “Lap” button is only active while the stopwatch is running. This ensures that lap times are recorded in real-time and maintain accuracy for your timing analysis.
Is there a maximum time limit for the stopwatch?
The stopwatch can run indefinitely and displays time in HH:MM:SS format with millisecond precision. It’s designed to handle extended timing sessions without any maximum time restrictions.
How do I best use this stopwatch for interval training?
For interval training, start the stopwatch and record a lap at the end of each work interval. The split times will show you the duration of each interval, while total times help track your overall workout progress. Reset between different workout sessions.
Can I use this stopwatch for Pomodoro technique timing?
Yes! Start the timer for your 25-minute work session, then use the lap function to mark breaks or task completions. While this stopwatch doesn’t have built-in Pomodoro alerts, you can manually track your work and break periods.
Does the stopwatch require an internet connection to work?
Once the page is loaded, the stopwatch works entirely offline. All timing functions, lap recording, and calculations happen locally in your browser, so you don’t need a continuous internet connection.
