Default IMHO the best lap timer and lap time analysis app for Android...RaceChrono

I tried to search but found only this one comment:

Anyways, if you have Android phone or tablet, check out RaceChrono app in Google Play Store.

It's excellent app for lap timing (when you use external high frequency GPS like Garmin Glo) but what I like the most is that you can really improve your laps with its analysis functions and what's the cost...ZERO. So this isn't advertising! Just get phone mount and external GPS and you have very easy to use analysis tool in your pocket.

Yet, there's the RaceChrono Pro version with video, OBDII support etc. and even more functions added all the time: http://www.racechrono.com/news/?p=453

This is coming from Finland btw My friend does both coding and testing while I focus only on testing

Very proud of his work as I've used lots of lap timing solutions in racing. I do also coaching and this brings much needed lap time analysis for all level of drivers without investing $$$. Would appreciate to hear your opinions

Back in the days I already used RaceChrono for Symbian! Good you have it for Android phones now. That's a solid app for lapping and analysis. Just mount an external bluetooth GPS near your window for most accurate data (5Hz or 10Hz).
