Hi all,

Stopwatch is not longer supported in Glide Apps.  
The main reason is that it wasn’t used much so far :

> We don’t see a lot of projects using it, so we didn’t put it on our shortlist for conversion.

**Why is that?**  
**Is it due to a lack of use cases ?**  
Apps that I use everyday have one :

- Sport coaching apps use it to time bound exercices.
- Games or Quizzes use it to measure the performance finishing a level.  
I could find more than [6k shots on Dribbble](https://dribbble.com/search/shots/popular/mobile?q=countdown) with timers.

**I believe that the current Stopwatch is just not very practical :**

- too large
- too complexe

I had to customise it a lot to make it fit in my todo app (screenshots below).  
I simply used it as a timer.

What do you think?
