Alarms and Stopwatch

[Jon12345]

Are there any good stopwatch programs for the Pocket PC? I need one that can count down or up and has multiple timers, if possible.

Also, if I want to set alarms, like for getting up with snooze etc, are there any good programs for this?

Regards,

Jon

Check out StopTime v2. http://home.comcast.net/~jonsachs/

It might answer both of your needs.

except for the alarms which just don't seem to work in WM2003.

My alarms work fine. I've tried and been using the built-in one, bugme, and TimeKeeper. All work

[fengwei007]

BTW, TimeKeeper is a quite nice StopWatch and CountDown clock. It can alarm/remind you when a countdown finishes. It's skinable too. Very nice app.

As for normal alarm, I use bugme. The best part of it (as an alarm) is that it can over write the system sound volume settings.

You can find it here:

Good luck!

There is a fix for this issue. If you search the 2200 series forum for alarm issues you will find a few threads discussing the alarm issues. I could never get my alarms to work in Stoptime until I added the patch from sprite software (hope that's right) and then enabled the automatic daily backup. Now the alarms work 100% of the time for me.

TimeKeeper is really great.

As a alarm I am using atalarm.

Well, the atalarm v1.5 worked fine for me, but when I upgraded to v3.0 the alarms stopped working. I've also tried their FixAlarm.exe and although it seems to find a lot of issues to be fixed, the alarms do not turn on the unit and they don't sound until I power on the unit.

I never used other version but I had this problem too.
I talked with the support and they said must be another app
that is in conflict. So I found out was the City Time since they have a alarm too. When a uninstalled city time atalarm was back to work.
I don't know now what to do about City time.
Do you have another app that has alarm?

Bye-bye Citytime. I'll let you know the results.
