CMOS: New Good Synchronized Cubing Timer

On the first page you see after loading CMOS there is a button called "import times from other timers" below the total number of solves. Click that, select one of the two csTimer methods and then follow the instructions there. The imported times will appear on your account a few hours after you submitted them.

I think it has to do with the captialisation of your username. You logged in as absoruud when you got the error, but registered as absoRuud. Please try again using the correct username.
There seems to be a bug there still letting you log case-insensitive in but failing to read the data, as it is stored case-sensitive. I will fix it, but this should be enough to get CMOS working again for you.

@AbsoRuud It is fixed now, which means you can't log in anymore, if you don't use the 100% correct username. This will prevent the situation, in which the timer did not load, from happening

Thank you. I logged in and it's working!

I would like to note that when I signed up I typed my username "AbsoRuud" and the site automatically changed it to "absoRuud". So I am guessing you do something automatic that changes the capitalization of the username when registering. Perhaps there's a way to store the username in all lowercase and always convert any and all usernames typed in also to lowercase? That way it doesn't matter how you type it, it will always work. I used to do similar stuff in database programming.

I changed it now so that login with any lowercase and uppercase letters is permitted. The username is still stored the exact way you enter it and will be displayed to you that way after logging in, not in lowercase.

On my iPhone, I can't delete times when I go into the timelist. The delete button just doesn’t work.

Edit: nvm

I tried to import my sessions from csTimer, but it never imported any solves

Solves from other timers need to be checked manually as the import scripts can't rely on documentation of the used formats I've just done that and the solves should appear now once you (re)load. This is also noted on the page where you select the timer format, but you're not the first to overlook that.

Well, if they have different database types and formats then it'd be fairly hard to automate it, so it kinda makes sense.

Exactly. Every timer has it's own format with the maximum amount of incompatibilities to other ones. My csTimer conversion script works pretty well now after doing quite a few imports with it and correcting what was wrong, so I might change it to do that automatically in the next major update.

I love this timer, however, is it possible to optimise the layout and website for ios devices? If not, that’s ok :).

That's possible, I don't own an ios device so I need to rely on feedback like yours to see if it is good to use there. Could you screenshot the non-optimal part(s) and send me those (here or PM)? I'll then take a look and see what I can improve

Can you add a gear ball?

If you want a scrambler for a gear ball, take a look at the 3x3x3 half turns scrambler. As far as I know that should work as a random moves scrambler.

I have
suggestions for iOS.

1. Can you make the parts that need Y/N confirmation (like this:
6A42C1B1-DB31-44BF-83B2-CA9C19D2CD74.png),
have an alert confirmation (like this:
B90AD5B1-E835-4713-B020-27ECACB0934F.png?

2. Just a small thing, but can you make the buttons change color/brightness when you click then

Also, there is bug where the word 'solve' won't go away. Ex:
6A42C1B1-DB31-44BF-83B2-CA9C19D2CD74.png.
It happens consistently.

I am curious to see how this turns out. Maybe this has already been said, but could you make an iOS app, please? I have a little C++ knowledge if you need some input!

For csTimer, I had a bunch of sessions for different ways to solve one puzzle(i.e 3x3 with 4 different methods). With the ability to make subsessions, is there an easy way to make them subsessions of a singular session? (so I want a 3x3 session to have a subsession for roux, zz, CFOP, all of the stuff I have multiple sessions for)

somewhere on the complex plane.
Also, it'd be great if there was a delay on starting the timer, so you have to hold the space bar for a second or so before starting the inspec/solve, because when i went on the site on mobile every time i tapped anywhere the timer would immediatly start.
