Frequently Asked Questions

What's a good app to time a swim meet with heats?

Swim Team Timer runs heats back-to-back from the deck into one combined leaderboard, with per-swimmer times and automatic PR tracking.

Can it also track diving?

Yes. Enter quick score totals, or run full dive sheets with degree of difficulty and per-judge awards — whichever your meet needs.

Which pool sizes does it support?

All the standard courses — 25-yard pools by default, with 25-meter and 50-meter configurations supported.

What about relays?

Relay timing with per-leg splits, plus a leaderboard of your fastest legs.

How do I share results with parents and athletes?

One tap turns any result into a share card — a clean image with the time and splits, ready for the team group chat. Season stats share the same way from each athlete's page.

How do I get my roster in?

Import it from a spreadsheet as a CSV in seconds, or add athletes by hand. Next season, rollover graduates your seniors and moves everyone else forward — no retyping.

Does it work with no cell service?

Yes. Everything works offline — timing, results, rosters. Data syncs through iCloud whenever you're back in coverage.

Is this a chip-timing system for big invitationals?

No — Team Timer is for timing your team. Race organizers rent chip systems for the whole field. Coaches and parents can use this app to keep your own athletes' splits, PRs, and season in your pocket. If it's your team you care about, this is built for you.

How much does it cost?

Try it free for 14 days. After that, $59.99/year or $12.99/month (USD), billed through the App Store — the annual plan saves $96/year over paying monthly. Auto-renews; cancel anytime in your App Store settings.
