About JV Chrono LapTimer

JV Chrono is a GPS lap timer, OBD reader, video recording with overlays and analysis system for all types of events related to the motoring world or outdoor sports.

Highlights:

• Laptimer for loop and point-to-point tracks.
• Speedo for off-track use.
• Bluetooth GPS and OBD II compatible.
• Video recording with overlays.
• GoPro HERO control.
• Steering wheel and byke lean angle measurement.

Perfect for loop tracks (“RACE"), point-to-point tracks ("RALLY"), B-roads (“ROUTE") and acceleration measurements ("DRAG RACE").

Improve your driving skills during the session, in real time. Only app that shows your current position within the track (very useful when the track is unknown) with the areas where you have gained/lost time or gone faster/slower than the reference lap. Modify the racing line and immediately see if you have improved or not. Improve regularity thanks to the predictive lap time.

Focus on driving and avoid looking at the device’s screen. Lets the app play voice messages with the elapsed or delta time with the reference lap. Introduce notes with any text to be played when crossed to remember braking points, the right gear or the racing line to follow. Perfect for bikers with a bluetooth headset.

Get the most out of your device's sensors. Measure the steering wheel angle to analyze understeer or oversteer, or get the byke lean angle to perfect your driving skills.

Record video with overlays during the session (4.3 or higher) without postprocessing. The app includes in the video the current speed, acceleration, track position or vehicle data obtained by OBD. Use the "REMOTE" mode to control another device like an action camera, recording from the most impressive point.

Only app that increases safety on track. It includes a proximity alert (4.1 or higher) to detect other app users that are close to you in other to notify that you will overtake or being overtaken. Avoid accidents or lost time behind slower vehicles that haven’t seen you.

Connect a Bluetooth OBD ELM327 device and record vehicle data like rpm, accelerator command or engine temps. It includes a gear shift light and sound indicator and coolant/oil temp alerts. Analyze your heel and toe with the gear ratio parameter. Data is recorded at maximun rate, regardless of GPS rate.

Command a GoPro HERO camera connected by wifi. It displays the current status and allows to control the GoPro manual or automatically. Control your GoPro with your GPS position or bluetooth commands!

Analyze your laps after the session and share your data with your friends. The app includes an advanced analysis tool to improve your driving and compare different laps, including laps from your friends. Export data to different formats including Google Earth or CSV to generate video overlays.

This is the best app I found for on-the-fly lap timing. If you are on track and want to compare your trace to the ideal sector trace as you drive, this allows you to do so, just like iRacing delta bar does, for instance. Very usefull for discovering the best path and speeds on a track. The display changes color from green to red gradually as you go below or above the best sector you have ever done. Plus, it is really easy to setup a track. Way easier than most lap timers i tried to use. Plus, the author has good email support and gets things fixed if needed.

T70%

I tried using this for autocross in "rally" mode and it proved useless. I was not driving on a pre-defined track, and there is no way to set ad-hoc start/stop points. I also tried "track" mode or whatever, and it failed to detect when I drove laps in a loop. It also took several minutes to figure out how to control the app. Most screens begin with a "help" overlay, a weak attempt to compensate for an unintuitive design.

Really complete app. Precise lap times compared to track timing. I can use it with or without my external bluetooth GPS and both works perfectly. And it provides much more info than the official timing so you can learn how to beat yourself best times.
