Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is the stopwatch?

The stopwatch uses your device's system clock and JavaScript's high-resolution timing API, providing accuracy within milliseconds. However, actual precision may vary slightly depending on your device's performance and browser.

Are my lap times saved?

No, lap times are not saved to any server or storage. They exist only in your browser's memory and will be lost when you refresh the page or navigate away. If you need to keep your times, write them down or screenshot the lap list.

Can I use this stopwatch offline?

Yes! Once the page is loaded, the stopwatch will continue to work even if you lose internet connection. All timing functionality is handled locally by your browser.

What is the difference between lap time and split time?

Lap time shows the time elapsed since the last lap was recorded, while split time shows the total elapsed time since the stopwatch started. Our stopwatch displays both: the main time shows total elapsed time, and each lap entry shows the time for that specific lap.

Does the stopwatch work on mobile devices?

Yes, the stopwatch is fully responsive and works on smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers. The interface automatically adapts to your screen size for the best experience.
