Twixt Time App Reviews

The possility to delete a separate time line of one messure of a Watch after Have registered. Very Nice program works fine

...but a much higher price ? I was one of the first users, the new way to mark the hands is a really big improvement and much more precise, but the new price will stop a lot of interested people from buying this software....

App crashes 9 out 10 times I try to use it. Updating did not solve as well as reinstalling. Questionable Results if you manage to get them :no my watch is not running 2 hours wrong that I can tell... Good idea so I hope things get fixed

After a full service center overhaul of my Omega Seamaster I decided to use Twixt to check the accuracy. Even though my watch had just been serviced Twixt measured that it was gaining just over 6 seconds per day (the threshold for chronometers). I took this info to the service center and they were able to get the gain down to about 1.3 seconds per day. Without Twixt I wouldnt have known my watch was out of spec and would have just accepted poorer accuracy than necessary. The app itself is clean and easy to use. I didnt expect it from just photographs of the watch face but the accuracy is impressive: it matched the Omega service centers measurement exactly.

I mean seriously. Its apps were pricey. Pretty lame just to leave one in the dust and come out with a new one. This should have been a feature added to Kello

This app works like a charm. Ive used it on various watches and clocks and it does ALL it says. My go to watch monitor. Well done.

This app used to be amazing, however now it crashes every time you try to take a picture. Very disappointed! Get Tooltime instead. Developer seem unwilling to fix it.

Unstable to the point of unusability; clunky design and artificial restrictions on when snapshots can be taken; poor feature set (eg, no way to plot variations over time or review data); overpriced.

...but no support for 24 hours dials. Update: option to change the name of the watch afterwards would be also great. A name was written wrong and I dont want to delete the measured values just because of that.

You need to map the positions of the hands on separate pictures so it computes the time difference between the watch and the iPhone. Its not a video analysis like it was sound analysis with the other app. Useless and expensive.

As per the Worn and Wound review, its not perfect/done. Right now its not worth it. First, it definitely needs a 10-minute spread for marking noon. Tons of watches dont have minute hash marks, or use numerals instead of an indice at 12. Second, performance is baaaad. It runs very, very slowly - and when youre trying to precisely line up hands and pivots, having a very unresponsive app is not good. Maybe ditch the cute lens effects on the zoom to speed things up, they arent needed. It has potential, but wait until they make it good - and lets hope they put more effort into fixing it than they did Kello.

It works as advertised but It is finicky to use and not very precise. Hard to select the exact spot to mark the hands and the middle.

Kinda works... Great idea that needs to be fine tuned.

Unfortunately this piece of software, apart from being complex in using, just doesnt work - time accuracy jumps from -12h to 10mins to +12h on a proper working watches.

It took more than a dozen shots, with unintelligible errors in between, to take the initial photo of the face of my Monaco. Once the app finally accepted the photo (no idea why it worked, previous didnt), I discovered the app wont work for watches with a separate face for seconds (eg chronos), rendering this app completely useless to me. Great.

Not sure what the two reviewers above are talking about. I own a Panerai w offset seconds and the app works fine. I also tried it on my TAG chrono and it also worked. Im still not convinced of the accuracy of the app however. Seems a little overpriced as well, but then again so are the watches this app is meant for.

For whatever reason, it doesnt seem to be able to accurately measure the daily variation. For example: I used the application to measure over24 hours the error on my watch and it reported losing 1.2 minutes per day. The actual error is around -1s/ day.

On the average, the app works pretty well. I am tracking 4 different timepieces, all with automatic movements. Once you have a few entries for that timepiece, it averages out to right at what I was calculating by hand, using an atomic clock. The most difficult part is in taking a quality image of the face. You need even lighting, with no glare (like from a lightbulb), and you need to hold the phone "square" to the watch face. You need to be able to see every minute market, regardless of how many you have, with equal clarity and they must all be at the same angle. If you do not accomplish this, the "12:00 marker" will not line up properly and you will notice that the lines for the hands do not fall perfectly in the middle of each hand. If these do not happen, you will receive inaccurate measurements. Should you proceed, despite the problems I described, it will require several measurements before the average works out to be accurate.

Lots & lots of "unable to verify time" & hands dont match errors despite a simple 3 hands watch (DSSD), strong wifi/cellular signals & clear, square-on face pics. Camera function works MUCH slower than native 4S camera. After the first few calibrations (identifying the center, 12 oclock & hands) I was expecting the app to detect the times on subsequent pics of the same watch automatically. Not the case. Calibrating each & every time makes this app more of a (frustrating) gimmick. Simpler to just allow manual entry of time in 10:08:15 format to compare with the camera snapshot time (when it works).

This does not work period. Camera takes forever to come on or just does not. Get errors every time I try to use it such as hands not synchronized and the new one Internet not available. Hopefully, they will clean it up and my $5 bucks LOL will not go to waste!
