Stop the Clock: Stopwatch Game with Friends

How to play Stop the Clock

1. Make a room. Type your name, tap Create a room and send the five-character code (or the link) to your friends. Phones and laptops can share a room.
2. Each round shows a target time, like 7.30 seconds.
3. Tap Start whenever you are ready, count in your head, and tap Stop when you think exactly that much time has passed. The stopwatch is never shown while it runs.
4. Your real time appears the moment you stop. All the times are shown once everyone has stopped.
5. The closest stop scores 10 points, then 7, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1. Within a hundredth of a second is a perfect stop: 3 bonus points.
