csTimer version 2024.01.26 - Professional Speedcubing/Training Timer
Language:
Introduction
csTimer is a professional timing program designed for Rubik's cube speedsolvers, it provides:
Amounts of scramble algorithms, including
all WCA official events
, varieties of twisty puzzles,
training scramble
for specific sub steps (e.g.
F2L, OLL, PLL, ZBLL
, and can filter cases), etc
Plenty of statistics functions, it supports
time-split timing
;
Any number of sessions
, session split/merge, etc.
Varieties of solver, such as
Cross, Xcross, 2x2x2 face, Skewb Face, SQ1 shape
, for learning or training these sub steps.
Other auxiliary tools, such as scramble image, 8-second inspection (voice) alert, metronome, batch-scramble generator, etc.
Backup function, For avoiding data missing, you can backup your solves to local files, csTimer's server or Google storage.
csTimer supports most of modern desktop browsers, on mobile phone and tablet PC, you can add csTimer to your home screen, and it will work as a native APP.
csTimer takes advantage of browser cache, which consumes traffic only when you open it for the first time, after that, csTimer is able to work without network connection (except for functions like backup)
csTimer is an open source software that follows the GPLv3. If you have any suggestions or comments on csTimer, please submit it

How to start timing
- Hold the space bar (or both of left and right Ctrl keys, or touch the screen on mobile devices) and wait for the timer to turn green, the timer will start timing once the space bar is released, press any key to stop timing and the solving time will be record.
UI description
- There are 6 buttons near the logo of csTimer: option, export, scramble, list times, donate, tools, click on the

List times panel
- In the list times panel, you can open session manager by clicking "Session", select/add/delete sessions, empty session by the selector and the button next to, then you can view the current single/average, best single/average, and the full time list.

For some bluetooth cubes, we need you to provide the MAC address of your cube to decrypt the data.
csTimer is able to automatically read MAC address of the cube if you properly setup your browser:
Chrome: enable chrome://flags/#enable-experimental-web-platform-features flag in browser settings.
Bluefy: turn on Enable BLE Advertisements option in browser settings.
