Stopwatch is a professionally made time management application that allows Windows PC users to take full control over the stopwatch function, with a wide array of advanced tools for measuring various activities at home, school, and work.

Developed by Comfort Software Group, the same team that has also crafted a highly versatile Countdown Timer free app for Windows PCs, this lightweight, reliable, and fast app allows everyone to easily control a stopwatch timer on any modern and legacy PC.

Due to the limited number of advanced functions compared to their Countdown Timer free app, the Stopwatch application for PC can be used to measure lap times in sporting events, productivity tasks, cooking steps, personal exercise times, and much more.

The tool provides not only a single stopwatch function, but also support for multi-staged timing. This is perfect for multi-lap sporting events and other repeatable activities that users want to precisely time.

The time measuring tool supports not only short-term events, but also events that run up to 100 hours, and is as precise as one-hundredth of a second.

Recorded times can be easily copied to the clipboard and pasted into any other Windows app or text field with the help of the built-in Clipboard tool, and multi-lap stats can also be recorded to the local memory in the form of a text file.

Free Stopwatch features a streamlined and simple-to-use user interface that anyone can learn to use in mere seconds.

The app is distributed as an automated installer, but once the app has been installed, users can easily copy the entire installation folder onto a portable USB stick, which can help them always have access to a fast, reliable, and easy way to measure time intervals for various activities, no matter on the go.
