Hey HN! My name is Derek, and this is my project.<p>Over my years running varsity XC &amp; track in HS, myself and others on my team took a lot of splits during workouts and races. It was always such a hassle to take splits without a convenient way to save, search, and share them with each other besides taking pictures or writing them out on paper. To solve this problem, I worked with my team as well as local athletes and coaches to develop Synchro: a free pro stopwatch app for people who take splits. Synchro Pro removes the ads and enables you to have an unlimited number of simultaneously running stopwatches (free limit is 2) and saved stopwatches in the &quot;Archive&quot; tab (free limit is 5).<p>It launched yesterday on the App Store, and I&#x27;d love for you to try it and let me know what you think!
