Pros and cons of RC-Timer Pro app for iPhone and iPad

RC-Timer Pro app good for

Very easy and powerfull app, highly recommended for F3x pilots
5⭐️!!! Cant wait for the next release with updated rules!

Some bad moments

I really like this App. Ive used palm apps for F3k before and theres no comparison. The multiple tasks are great and easy to set up. The only thing I could ask for is for it to know when I throw and land! I still need someone to start and stop it for me. Great practice tool, hope to use it in casual competition soon. Recommend it to anyone interested in having a timing utility for RC. Would like to see LMR task timer added as well.
Love the quick and ease of picking tasks! -- Update: Still loving the app much better than pen and paper and timer. Requests: Add the ability to change the way time is displayed like just seconds or minutes and seconds etc. Doing math in your head can be rough sometimes.
Good timer... Needs a few minor tweaks - most of which are promised for v2.1
Havent used it for real but at first sight I can suggest: - The task start time should be able to simultaneously start the worktime timer. - It would be nice to be able to actually store "sessions/contests". Yes, the app currently stores all your tasks, but what if you want store all your tasks from a contest or practice session. - It would be nice to have a built-in points calculator.
