StartStopWatch

Stopwatches + a 1-tap home screen widget for Android

StartStopWatch launched on March 9, 2026 with 6 votes, #1,631 of 23,380 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.

What it does

I got frustrated with stopwatch apps. They're either bloated with features I don't need, full of ads, or their widgets take up half my home screen. I just wanted something simple that does one job well. So I built StartStopWatch. Use the app to run multiple stopwatches at once. Name them, drag to reorder, swipe to delete. That's it. Or just put a 1x1 widget on your home screen, tap to start, tap to stop. No need to open the app. Put a few on your home screen for different timers.
