Nice app -- one suggestion - Version: 1.3.1, 1/18/2006 02:17PM PST

This is a nice, clean, useful application, deserving of donations for people that use it regularly.

I'd love to see a preference added so that you could start / pause the timer by pressing a key (such as the space bar), so that if I am timing a speech I can start / pause without having to hunt for the button with the mouse.

Wow. This is exactly what I was looking for for my stretching and yoga. Now I can totally concentrate on my exercises and not have to break pose to look at a watch. The voice activation is perfect!

Simple UI is perfect as well. No need for this kind of app to look fancy.

I needed a simple stopwatch like app. Simply start when I want and stop when I want. This app does that very well. The voice recognition is good as well. Thank You for the freeware.
