lap timer apps?
Discussion
What's the problem / how are you expecting changing the app to resolve?
I ask because the reason to put it in the windscreen is to give the GPS a decent view of the sky, and so the best chance for satellite reception. Using a different app won't change that one iota.
If on the other hand it's to do with the UI, then there's probably some benefit.

The problem is…I can't get it to work. I can't even work out HOW to get it to work. It seems very complicated, but then I'm probably stupid. To me a UI is a urinary infection.

Lol!
How exactly can't you work it?
Basically you just select the track you want and start driving. It should do everything else
It's incredibly accurate too - timing at the 'ring was withing 1/10th second timing by hand with a stopwatch and consistently accurate on UK tracks too. It doesn't all work faultlessly but I can't complain.
Did you know there's a forum for harrys lap timer? I've used to before and "Harry" responds pretty quick

Hmmm…that's what I thought. But it didn't. It didn't do anything. I'm going to persevere with it: I'll google the tutorial and start from there. Everyone else seems to be able to work. How exactly can't you work it?

It can't be completely beyond me like working the washing machine is.
I've picked up Harry's in the last month. It isn't obvious at first but it is literally idiot proof once set up.
HOWEVER. It does require the phone to be solidly attached to something, a bendy vibrating windscreen mount won't work (for the accelerometer at least).
Give it 20 mins practice and you'll be laughing.
