A Voice Controlled Android Stopwatch
Posted under: 
I just launched a little weekend project I’ve been working on. It’s pretty simple- An Android stopwatch app that lets you use voice commands to control it.
I got the idea while trying to learn how to do a handstand. I would kick up to a wall, then try to hold myself up for some amount of time. The only problem was, once I was up, I couldn’t start the timer! There was already one voice controlled stopwatch on the Android market, but it used online voice recognition, so was a significant lag between giving your command, and the stopwatch responding.
I decided I needed offline voice recognition to avoid that problem, and to allow you to use the timer when internet wasn’t available.
So anyways, the “Handsfree Stopwatch” (very creative name, right?) uses offline voice recognition to listen for your commands. You can set it to use any word or phrase, as long as it is in English. You can also choose to have an audio cue play at a designated interval, so while you’re up in your handstand you’ll know how much time has passed.
Here are a few screenshots. You can also check it out on the Google Play Store here.
Love this app! Please add a lap feature that also reads out the lap time, and this would be perfect for drone racing
Yes please!
The link to the Google Play store is dead, does this app still exist? What is the app’s name?
I want this app but cant find it anywehere……….. help?!
I agree. I’d love to use this app. Please make it available again. Thank you!!
Any chance you would post link to the APK for this app. Really hoping to use it.
So this app is no longer available? That sucks. You would think with all the stupid technology today this type of app would new available. So flipping annoyed. When your running and wanting to knits the time of reach lap you break stride fiddling with your stupid watch or phone.
