StopWatch & Timer is an app that provides you with simple stopwatch and timer functionality right on your Android device. The app is quite small and takes up less than 1 MB of space. It's perfect for any type of activity requiring timing, such as cooking, sports and exercise, work tasks and more.

This app has been around since 2009 and has been downloaded by millions of users, making it one of the most popular stopwatch and timing tool for the Android platform. The interface is clean and free of clutter. Digits are displayed in a large font to make them easier to read. You can enable fullscreen mode as well. Even though the default interface should meet the needs of most people, you can change the background color and font for the display digits if you want to personalize your timekeeping.

The stopwatch lets you keep track of laps and assign names to them. The timer mode is even more interesting, as it includes more sophisticated features. You can count down then up, count down and repeat or count down and start the next timer you've set. An alarm of your choice will sound when the timer finishes counting down. You have the option of making the alarm insistent, requiring you to cancel it before the app takes the next action. StopWatch & Timer now lets you export data by email, which is quite helpful if you want to keep track of times you've measured with the stopwatch.

The free version displays some ads and has a limit of three timers. This should be sufficient for most users, but you can always purchase the paid version if you need to set more timers. The ads themselves are placed in a way that doesn't interfere with the display or controls. However, there have been a few cases where the app stopped keeping track of the time when an ad appeared. This seems to be a bug that only occurs rarely, but can be quite inconvenient if it makes you lose track of timing.
