    Much less convenient for me.

    Takes time to reach the app. Takes one second to press one button on the stopwatch.
    And I rather reserve the phone’s battery for something else than for this purpose.

    Also - I didn’t know we were gadget-shaming here?

      I am by no means gadget shaming, don’t get me wrong. It’s just I do all you mentioned there with a stopwatch on my phone, and personally I would never consider buying a dedicated stopwatch for this purpose. I’m happy you’re enjoying yours though, may it last you long!

        It also depends on how often you need to use a specific tool.
        In my case, I use the stopwatch often enough to have it existing on its own 🙂

        Agree. I think that about watches too. Beyond a fashion accessory, I can’t find them useful. I’ve had good watches, cheap watches, digital and automatic. Not only do they feel weird on my skin, my phone can do the job better.
