What did you use it for?
Did you like it?
Did you use the download feature?
Any suggestion?
So far I’m aware of following uses:
- record the time used to complete tests on a mathematics page
- record time to complete tests on a music teaching site.
- record time between contractions to know when to run to the hospital. I would never had expected this one

NS Says:
March 2nd, 2009 at 4:09 amVisit NS We are currently using your chronometer at work to time our phone calls. We have a call center and are timing and counting the incoming phone calls this month. Very useful! Thank you for that.

Roberto Says:
March 9th, 2009 at 6:43 amVisit Roberto A Lap button could be useful, that add a row without stop the time. Thank you
Pete Says:
March 18th, 2009 at 1:34 pmVisit Pete I would like to have timers that i can start and stop several times. I have to register all the time i spend on different projects at work, a timer for each project would be nice.

Adam Says:
March 29th, 2009 at 10:12 amVisit Adam Maybe add a keyboard shortcut like space or enter to start/stop the watch? And make the start button bigger.
Jane Says:
April 21st, 2009 at 3:46 amVisit Jane I always use the stop watch regularly for all my projects so I know how much time I spend on clients accounts. Its a great simple tool and well recommended!
oscar Says:
April 24th, 2009 at 9:41 amVisit oscar this timer needs another buttom that it doesnt stop the time but catch a specific moment!!!
thanks!
Ursula Says:
May 3rd, 2009 at 7:18 pmVisit Ursula A second on what Pete says — I’d like to go back to earlier tasks and restart the timer
Casey Says:
May 26th, 2009 at 11:59 pmVisit Casey To stay on task and not dawdle too much on a particular task, it would help if I can identify how long I should spend, in advance, on each task. We’re talking multiple tasks, like Pete says, yet chronologically reverse, so that I set the time limit and it counts backwards to zero, sounding some alarm.
So, interface-wise, there would be a box right to the left of “Start/Stop”. In that box I could right “read marketing blogs”. Then I could set my time. Then, underneath, would be an option “Add another project”. Clicking this would open another identical entry line with a box for the project description, “Start/Stop”, time, “Reset”. When I’ve entered a few projects, I then hit start on the first project line. Once done, my Firefox tab will blink, and I can click back to the tab, end that project, and start project 2.
I give you props on what you’ve done! Nice work!

Thanks!
Hengist Says:
July 7th, 2009 at 2:27 amVisit Hengist Easy to use and practical. I use it for timing how long I spend on translations so I can work out my equivalent hourly earnings. I find it much easier to use than timesheet software. The csv export feature is a nice touch too.
Cristiano “Mad Dog” Says:
July 29th, 2009 at 7:17 amVisit Cristiano “Mad Dog” A Lap button would be nice.
Is saves the time like the stop/star do, but without stopping the timer.
By the way, very useful tool!
admin Says:
July 29th, 2009 at 10:46 amVisit admin Ok. I’ll have a second thought on the “Lap” feature. Meanwhile there’s a workaround for those who are not worried about precisions below 0.5 seconds. Just doubleclick on start/stop.
Tim Says:
August 26th, 2009 at 12:24 pmVisit Tim We are using this tool to log machine downtime in our manufacturing facility. It provides EXACTLY the functionality we need. When an operator encounters a problem they start the timer and put a numeric code in the task field, they stop the timer when the issue is fixed. The export function makes it very easy to dump the data to excel and use pivot charts to combine and analyze data from multiple shifts.
However, the need to have internet access hurts us. On night shifts when supervision is thin there is constant web browsing (and less productivity) from the operator. Having the ability to run this program offline would be truly great, and something we would probably pay to do as it is such a great tool.
James Says:
September 13th, 2009 at 12:48 pmVisit James I’m working for an Online banking service (24/7), and login hour is a must for me. This tool is very helpful to me and to my co-workers. Using this stop watch, we can track our login hours in a day, which in turn will give our salaries. We are thankful that we have this helpful tool.
God Bless You!!!
This tool is already perfect and from my point of view, there is no need for further improvement, please keep going. This is the best.
GP Says:
September 14th, 2009 at 2:41 amVisit GP We are using it for our Helpdesk . It helping us for timing different task. ( such as remote control) .

SunnyD Says:
January 12th, 2010 at 10:41 pmVisit SunnyD Thank for providing a stopwatch that shows WHAT TIME YOU STOPPED IT!! I’ve been using online stopwatches for some time now. I tend to forget to restart the clock after taking a quick break, and thus under bill my clients because I guess on the low side and figure it’s my own fault. I was getting sick of that so tonight I was on mission to find one like yours!
Rick Says:
January 27th, 2010 at 6:52 amVisit Rick I love it and would like to use it to time customer service calls. It has everything I need but the running stopwatch needs to reset to zero when restarted (when stopped, the stopwatch would display the same time as the associated entry added to the csv file). I need the running time of the call visible so it can be used in escalation decisions. As it is, after the first call the running time is meaningless and simply a distraction.
less Says:
May 7th, 2010 at 9:19 amVisit less It’s easy to use, but I’d like to have the posibility to have just minutes and seconds: the running thousandths make me feel sick….
Nicholas Sergeant Says:
June 10th, 2010 at 3:59 pmVisit Nicholas Sergeant Please consider including the keyboard operation (Alt-alpha letter) of the Start/Stop/Reset function for users who want a faster and more direct way to operate the stop watch. (For example, strange as it may seem, I would like to operate the stop watch with my eyes closed.)
Glauco Caon Says:
June 16th, 2010 at 10:51 pmVisit Glauco Caon This software has simply a great concept.
No installation needed, besides the fact it’s free.
I’ve started using Chronme and now will be hard to stop. Thank you for this great application development!
However, It would be really great if it was possible to effectivly “add” it to a browser interface, like Google Chrome, like in a way that Chronme didn’t need to become a separate bar that uses vertical space. The final objective would be that, everytime the user open his/her browser, he/she wouldn’t need to access Chronme website, neither when he/she opens a new tab in the browser. Of course I’m not sure if this is possible, but would be a great integrated “addon” if impemented (ex: for Google Chrome). It’s just a feedback by the way.
admin Says:
June 16th, 2010 at 11:12 pmVisit admin Hi Glauco
Did you try the toolbar option? You’ll be able to use your browser as usual without having your vertical window space being used by Chronme. It’s not exactly what you ask for but it might be useful to you.

Roberto Filho Says:
July 20th, 2010 at 7:32 amVisit Roberto Filho I liked the app very much, it’s clean and simple, and most of all, useful. One little suggestion: making it save the split time table with a cookie or other means so that when I come back to the site at a later time I can see my saved split times.
That way I don’t have to download a desktop application just for that, and I’m sure it would be a great differential over other online stopwatch websites, since I have looked for this functionality in similar websites and haven’t found one that has it.
Hope that helps, keep up the good work!
Andres Garzon Says:
August 20th, 2010 at 5:34 pmVisit Andres Garzon Your Chronometer is so good, and very useful to take time, specially, in proccess, etc.
Only I have a feedback, It shoud being exported to Excel, but separte by columns, total time in one, laps in other one, date in other one, and comments in other one, that could be do other stuff like a summary of times, and means
Thank you
admin Says:
August 20th, 2010 at 11:15 pmVisit admin Hi Andres
Thanks for your feedback. Have you tried both export options? One of them should work exactly how you describe. It all depends on your specific Windows/Excel configuration.
Depending on the default field separation character your Excel is using you’ll find that “save as csv (comma)” or “save as scsv(semicolon)” will open the file in columns. Just try.
If you still have trouble drop me an email info@chronme.com (in Spanish if you prefer).
Regards
Chronme

September 14th, 2010 at 4:25 amVisit Herr Hirsch Hi, I`m from Argentina, I found in Chrone me an excelent tool to control the time that my duties take me. I like its design very much. Keep it simple, don’t pollute the screen with advertisments, please!.
Thank you, good luck!
Chronme says: You have now a spanish version available at: http://cronometro-online.chronme.com
admin Says:
September 14th, 2010 at 5:28 amVisit admin Hi Herr Hirsch
Thanks for your feedback. I’ll definitely try to keep it clean as much as possible in the future. There’s just a small ad on the top left side. My intention is to keep as is. Hope this doesn’t disturb you too much. Helps me paying the hosting costs
Regards

Jeff Says:
November 19th, 2010 at 11:26 amVisit Jeff I second what Adam said. Enter or Space Bar to Start/Stop would be great! No hand/eye coordination would be required so you would not have to be looking at the screen to start/stop.
Nice program.
Luisa Says:
November 28th, 2010 at 11:39 amVisit Luisa excellent website… no pop ups, no interviews, no need to register. easy to use!!! I was trying to find a chronometer in my “smart phones” I went for this option because I needed less clicks!!!

admin Says:
February 19th, 2011 at 9:33 amVisit admin Today we launched a new version of our online stopwatch ChronMe. Chronme now supports hotkeys. This feature has been requested several times and will help to operate the stopwatch without having to use the mouse and eventually loosing some microsecs while pointing at the right button. You may also operate ChronMe with your eyes closed
Bobbo Says:
May 15th, 2011 at 7:23 pmVisit Bobbo I love this for recording time on each task. The only thing that has caused me grief is when I have accidently hit the Escape key or clicked the Reset button by mistake and, whoops!, there goes all my time recording.
Is it possible to put a secondary confirmation asking “Are you sure?” before the data is cleared?
Great work, thanks again.
kristian p Says:
September 14th, 2011 at 7:16 pmVisit kristian p Very nice, and simple. I could do with about double the size for the text fields.
Using it for time-tracking, to see how much time a one minute process takes over the course of a day.
ljilekor Says:
September 21st, 2011 at 8:58 amVisit ljilekor Using the chrono to time my rubiks cube solving skills.
Btw…
Insert key for laptimes sucks on most laptops. You may change (or add) this to:
SPACE = Start/Stop
CTRL or SHIFT = Lap time
This will work on any type of machine (also tablets and smartphones)
Countdown (+ visual/audio signal) would be nice for when I’m cooking and of course many other applications

Sorry I didn’t see your comment earlier. It somehow felt through the cracks. This is a Firfox 9 bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=712897
In any case it has just been fixed through a workaround. Keys work again now!
Thanks for the heads up.
Albi Says:
February 12th, 2012 at 12:09 amVisit Albi The two buttons “stop/start” and “reset” need to be reversed. Alternatively, the Reset button should be placed somewhere else. But a simple switch would be better since most people are right handed.
Albi Says:
February 13th, 2012 at 8:01 pmVisit Albi ALSO YOU NEED TO AN ***ELAPSED TIME*** FEATURE!!!!
Albi Says:

Wheresmytime Team Says:
February 1st, 2013 at 2:53 pmVisit Wheresmytime Team Hi,
Wheresmytime developed a time tracking map app that we believe could be interesting for you and your network.
Could you please share this information with Android mobile’s users you might know?
Wheresmytime is a time tracking app, which runs in the background and records the time you spend in each location. Your time is then displayed on the map with the accuracy and the time period you choose.
Your position is localised without GPS, therefore allowing for use in the buildings and reducing battery consumption.
Privacy: Wheresmytime saves your position only in your mobile phone.

Warrick Says:
February 21st, 2013 at 8:56 amVisit Warrick I use this to time my academic presentations. The lap option helps me trim or expand specific sections as needed. Simple, clean, and effective. Thanks for this service.
alboi Says:
June 23rd, 2013 at 8:37 pmVisit alboi How about making this into an android app? But you MUST develop a nice widget for it too. That would be a really cool thing. Although there are several chronometers out there for android. There are no good ones with widgets as well.
Suds Says:
July 7th, 2013 at 8:33 pmVisit Suds It would be nice to have the option to make the button cycle with just one touch (not start/stop). This would be useful in many situations, such at timing the intervals of sequential events (like each time a car passes by). Usually traffic analysis people just count the cars. What might be even more interesting is the time between cars. This is just one example.
cedl Says:
September 3rd, 2013 at 5:58 amVisit cedl I’m using your tool right now to record my freelancing activity. Very useful, especially with the export feature!
What I’m missing is a mobile optimized version. This does not neccessary have to be an App. Since media queries in CSS3 make it very easy to optimize a Website device specific, for me a simple WebApp would be far enough.
After that you could run the data export via DataURLs, and the WebApp was possibly offline available (just add an appcache manifest, and I’m lucky

chris Says:
October 17th, 2013 at 8:07 amVisit chris (hi it’s me again) Would it be possible to add a pop-up warning when navigating away from the page while a timer is active? I’ve lost my stopwatch times more than once due to this.
