If you’ve ever volunteered at a weekend swim meet, you know the drill: soggy clipboards, stopwatches that don't quite match, and a chaotic table in the corner frantically re-typing handwritten times into a spreadsheet while swimmers and parents wait around for results.
Lane Timer was built to end the clipboard scramble. By turning volunteer parents' smartphones into a synchronized multi-lane timing system, every lane starts together and records accurate split and finish times directly on device. Times are automatically formatted and exported ready for meet management software—completely eliminating manual paper entry and transcription mistakes.
The result is faster heats, happier swimmers, and hours saved for busy coaches and volunteer parents. Best of all, it delivers the precision of multi-thousand-dollar timing hardware at 99% less cost—with zero ads and no account requirements.
