Hi, I'm Andi, one of the developers of Photo Finish and I'm absolutely thrilled to share Photo Finish here on Product Hunt! As semi-pro 800m runners ourselves, we knew the struggle with pricey, clunky timing gear. Our club didn't even have the money to afford a light barrier system. So we built Photo Finish - an affordable and accurate timer right on your phone. Would love to hear your thoughts and get any feedback you have!

Comment highlights

As an ex-track athlete, I love this. Training before tech, it was always hard to get accurate times on trials and training. Looking forward to testing this out!
This is so cool! Will this work for Karting as well? It would be great to have a share feature as well! Congrats!
