Yea, I heard about it. I'm actually a rising freshmen. I'll be sure to check it out when I arrive on campus next week.

In other news, version 2.05 is out. It allows "+2" after each solve by hitting the menu button and selecting "+2."
Also statistics,now, update immediately after deleting solves.

I noticed that the 2x2 and 4x4 scrambles aren't WCA scramble.

Is the length off?

No for the WCA scrambles the 2x2 only used F R U moves while the WCA 4x4 scramble is only F U R D B L Fw Uw Rw.

Alright thanks. I didn't know that. I'll fix it in the next update

Cool thanks. 
Also Pyraminx scrambles should be something like this U' L' U' R B' L' R' b' u'

Both are because of how it computes those scrambles, though. It picks a random state for the puzzle, then computes a move sequence to reach that state from solved state. And the solvers just use those reduced move sets (at least I think so, haven't actually read the details).
Blindly creating a sequence of random moves from those reduced sets of moves might not scramble as well. Might very well for the 2x2, but I have doubts for the 4x4.
Btw, very impressive project for someone who just recently started coding.

Hi Ish,
Few more comments:
1) Although Stats are updated when deleting a time, Progress graph is not.
2) When you clear times, the progress chart Y axis labels are crazy
3) When you clear times, PBs all show as 99:99:99. I guess this should show N/A (even if you're using 99:99:99 behind the scenes).
4) Set an inspection time in settings. Goto Timer. Back to Settings and it says 'your inspection time is 0 seconds'.
5) Goto Settings. Set inspection time of 5 seconds. Back to Timer. Start the clock. The clock will stop at 2 seconds for 2 seconds, then start the clock.
6) Still with inspection @ 5s. Start the inspection timer. Stop it @3s. You are left with no timer running, just 00:00:00
7) Still with inspection @ 5s. Start inspection timer. Hit 'back' to quit to front screen. After 5 seconds, the timer beeps. Quitting should cancel inspection (timer hasn't started if you go back to timer).
8) Inspection timer should end with a visual prompt as well as audio. If you manage to apply the stackmat-style colours, then the screen should be red during inspection, then flash to green and stay green during timing.
9) I know I've said it before, but get rid of the 'Min:Sec.Cs' label. We all know what the timer units are, it's just cluttering up the screen.
10) Hide the scramble once the screen has been touched (i.e. inspection/timer has started).
11) Include the scramble in stats?
12) +2 works well, but there's no means of removing the +2 if added in error. Clicking +2 again adds 4 seconds to the solve time, I think it should toggle the +2. The only time you'd want +4/+6/... would be for BLD, and if this is the case, it should read +4 or +6, not +2, but add 4 or 6 seconds. As I say, I think clicking +2 on a solve that is already +2 should cancel the +2.
13) The label for the 'New Scramble' menu button option is clipped. Just make it 'New Scramble' - I know this can also be achieved by shaking, but this info won't fit in the label!
That's all I have for now - just keeping you on your toes! ;-)
Edit: One more - race timer should show scramble on both sides.

Hey pipkiksass ,
Hahah wow. I guess I have a lot of work ahead of me.
Thanks again for all the feedback. I was also noticing something funky going on with the inspection time. I'll see what's up with that.
I'll definitely clean up the formatting, fix the bugs and get back to you with another update tomorrow.
Appreciate you keeping me on my toes.

Grr. This inspection time glitch is driving me crazy.
Guess tonight's an all-nighter.

Alright, so i was gone for a couple days, but I didn't leave guys without an update!
Sune Time (Version 2.20): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Baid.basic5&hl=en
So with this update, I made minor tweaks with the main timer, but mostly focused on improving the Race Timer. Race timer now includes a scoreboard as well as scrambles for all WCA puzzles.
Also, I threw in a neat graph that plots both player's times on the graph to compare progress.
I'm going to be throwing out another update tonight, just to improve the look of the race timer, as well as get rid of the buttons (touching your side of the screen will stop your individual timer).
Also, I'm still working on other features such as exporting times and scrambles, but it seems this is taking a lot longer than anticipated. Any features that you may want me add before I leave for college this week, let me know.
Thanks

The Pyraminx scrambles need to be fixed by changing the Notation to include these moves B,U,L,R,b,u,l,r
Bhargav777
OH friendly please
I get scrambles like F B F2 B' D U2 D' which make no sense. Please fix that thanks.
thanks.wolferber

Alright, so I definitely need to fix scrambles.
I've never really messed around with a pyraminx. So if I'm understanding this right:
the first 6-8 characters of the scramble need to be uppercase and include: B,U,L,R
and the last 2-4 need to be lower case and include b, u, l, r
is that correct?

Yep that is correct.

Don't just do 6-8 random moves, though. That's probably not good enough. Either do sufficiently many random moves, or make a random state scrambler.

Ok, that makes sense. I'll be sure to do that in the next update.
Sune Timer (version 2.23):https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Baid.basic5&hl=en
This version has better scrambles, but as mentioned above, will be improved further in next update. You won't get ridiculous scrambles like U2 D' U anymore.
Also, race timer has a fantastic new look. No more stop button, just tap your side of the screen to stop your individual timer. Also the scoreboard has a nicer look.

Whoo! Excited to finally release another update (Release date: today, in about 2 hours). This one shows upcoming WCA competitions in EVERY country!
Also updated world records (Congrats to Feliks btw!).
I sincerely apologize that I haven't been able to put out all the updates that I was planning. My freshmen year in college is kicking my butt!
I'm really on working on learning new programming techniques to further improve this app. Next week I'll be MHacks, the country's largest hackathon!! It should be a lot of fun, and hopefully I'll pick up better programming methodologies that will help me improve Sune Timer.
Thanks for the support guys!
