Time events with a stopwatch on Apple Watch Ultra
Time events with accuracy and ease. Apple Watch Ultra can time full events (up to 11 hours, 55 minutes) and keep track of lap or split times, then show the results as a list, a graph, or live on your watch face. The Chronograph and Chronograph Pro watch faces have the stopwatch built in.
Open and choose a stopwatch
Open the Stopwatch app on your Apple Watch Ultra, or tap the stopwatch on your watch face (if you’ve added it or you’re using the Chronograph or Chronograph Pro watch face).
To choose a different format, turn the Digital Crown.
You can choose Analog, Hybrid, or Digital.
Start, stop, and reset the stopwatch
Open the Stopwatch app on your Apple Watch Ultra, turn the Digital Crown to choose a format, then do any of the following:
Start: Tap .
Record a lap: Tap .
Record the final time: Tap .
Reset the stopwatch: With the stopwatch stopped, tap .
The timing continues even if you switch back to the watch face or open other apps.
Review results on the display you used for timing, or change displays to analyze your lap times and fastest/slowest laps (marked with green and red) in the format you prefer.
