Sessions

What are Stopwatch Sessions?

Think of sessions as separate stopwatches you can name and switch between. Use them to track your performance across different tasks, compare results between team members, or keep separate records for different events. Switch between sessions anytime — nothing is lost. Your Default session is always available and cannot be removed.
