Available on the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPod Touch, TimeSync is the first app in a series of apps we are planning to release that are focused on rallies or rally car races. However, TimeSync can be used for other purposes as well!
TimeSync is a small iPhone / iPod Touch app that allows the user to manually synchronize the app’s clock to some external clock. For example, a Rally Racing team can synchronize the app to the race’s master time piece before they start to race. Additionally, TimeSync’s clock can be viewed in ‘decimal time’, with the seconds represented as hundredths of a minute rather than sixtieths of a minute.
Features include:
- Ability to sync the app’s clock(s) to an external time, so that they match. Example: Use TimeSync to match a rally race clock before the race starts.
- Display the time in decimal seconds, which comes in handy for co-drivers, also known as rally navigators.
- Synchronized time is saved across iPhone/iPod restarts, or when you quit and reopen the app. If the application should crash or the battery becomes critically low (device shuts down), the synchronized time is also saved. Just reopen the app.
- Synchronization is pressed as soon as the ‘Sync’ button is touched, when you confirm the sync the clock has been running since you’ve touched the ‘Sync’ button. Canceling the sync at any time will revert the clock to your current sync. This avoids overwriting your current sync with an unwanted sync operation.
- Reset the app’s clock to the iPhone/iPod’s time when convenient.
