Before heading out on the water, make sure everything is prepared on your watch:
Ensure your watch has synchronized recently
Give each timer you want to use a clear, meaningful name (and optionally a fleet color)
Confirm that all relevant settings for each start are correctly configured:
Countdown model
Finisher mode
Use +4 min reminder (enable or disable according to your choice)
Make sure all parent timers are removed if you don’t want to use back to back starts
Reset the timer, or set it to start at a specific time
Make sure all preparation is completed well before race day
Make sure the app is started well before the first start if you want to use GPS as the time source
Avoid making changes or installing updates immediately before a regatta. While we always do our best to avoid introducing issues in the app, new versions may occasionally contain unexpected problems. Discovering such issues during a start procedure can be disruptive and, in the worst case, a nightmare. It is often better to use a version you have tested and are familiar with than to install a new version without proper testing. You can read more about updates in the How To – Update the app.
