StartClock is a start clock for orienteering and other sports with interval start. StartClock can be used by coaches to simulate real starts at trainings or at competitions as a cheap alternative to the prevalent start clocks. StartClock will, under reasonable conditions, run for at least five hours if no other applications are running.
StartClock uses the internal time of the device, but the time can be synchronized within a second of any other time. Features include different beep intervals (10, 15, 30, 60seconds and 1.5, 2, 2.5, 5, 10, 15 min beep intervals), different formats for the time (HH:mm:ss, HH, mm, ss), Night mode. Multiple devices can be used together to create a start clock that can be seen from far away.
Latest reviews of StartClock app for iPhone and iPad
Addendum: Thanks for updating this app. Please bring back the countdown feature if possible. Also, a 3 minute start interval would be be good. I dont know what you would use 1.5 and 2.5 for. This app is wonderful. It is kind of a specialized use, and the other reviewer doesnt understand what it is for. This is a time trial start clock. Plug in to an external speaker for extra volume (not Bluetooth which has a lag) and you can start your race like a pro and add consistency to the start procedure. It just flat works. I would use it anywhere.
I was looking for some thing like a stop watch that would beep when starting the clock. This is just a simple clock that beeps at the top of the minute. It measures in complete seconds and has no stop watch function.
