NonStop Watch 2
· v1.0.1-upd
About
The NonStop watch is a simple stop watch designed to be easily accessible and very easy to use. It sports a "one button to rule them all" interface and allows you to freely use other apps and widgets without disrupting your timing (thus "non-stop"). You can even turn your device off and then back on and have your timing continue!
Using the NonStop Watch
1. Get to the widget
Find the NonStop Watch widget by pushing your up/down arrow buttons while on your watchface until the NonStop Watch screen appears.
2. Use the ENTER button to start and stop the timer.
NonStop Watch will continue to function when you leave the screen—you can go and use other watch functions without disrupting your timing. The NonStop Watch will not impact the other functions you perform.
3. "Double click" the ENTER button to reset the timer.
If the timer is running when you reset, the timer will continue to run starting from 0. If the timer was stopped when you reset, it will be stopped at 0.
The Display
The time shown will gracefully display more time fields as the length of the stop watch time increases. The time format is:
[days] [hrs]:[mins]:[secs]
100ths of a second will also be shown for times less than ten hours (when stopped) and less than ten minutes (when running).
Limitations
1. The NonStop Watch screen will revert to watchface after a given time of inactivity. This is a general limitation of all widgets. The exact amount of inactivity depends on the device--for the FR935XT, this is two minutes. To keep the widget up for a longer period, push the Light button for a short time. Your other option is to just let your watchface display and then just hit the up/down arrow buttons to redisplay the NonStop Watch widget.
2. You can't time anything shorter than 4/10ths of a second.
3. When you want to time across powering off/on your device, leave the NonStop Watch screen before powering off.
4. No lap ability
