I created the Rubiks Metro Timer, first for Windows 8, and then ported to Windows Phone. So just follow the links above to try and download them. As of now here are the features:

- 3x3x3 scrambler for every solve
- RA of 5
- automatic saving of session so you can get back to your previous session solves
- editing of solves

Very cool! Looking forward to playing with this on my Surface tonight!

Sorry, I don't have timer specifically for Windows 7, well maybe if you'd want I would suggest you try the Java-based timers like CalCubeTimer or the ones made by Walter Souza, it's good for any desktop computers like Windows 7

There are plenty of iPhone and Android timers out there. I don't have a windows phone, but it's nice to know that those who do will now have a timer app.

I have a lot of timers anyway. Thanks

Nice. I was working myself one one for Win8, but I guess it's not necessary to continue, since yours look really great.

Good timer - I wish it had rolling avg12 too, but apart from that it's great! Thanks!
Doesn't have enough features to use on my laptop, but works cleanly on the surface when out.

I had implemented the Average of 12, but since the screen doesn't fit the other details I disabled it. But for the future updates of the app (for both Windows Phone, as well as Windows 8), I will place a dedicated page for the session details for showing the Average of 12 also ^^

Please keep the comments and suggestions coming so to improve the app Since all of us using Windows Phone and Windows 8 want and deserve cube timer app that takes great advantage of user experience of Windows 8/Windows Phone ^^

Is the Windows 8 app currently available outside of the Philippines Windows Store? If not, when will it be available? If so, how do I download it?
Thank you.

It's available, go to the link from the original post.

If I upgraded my Win 7 computer to 8 or use my moms Win 8 laptop Will the timer support the Speedstacks?

 

[StachuK1992]

The timer's purpose is to utilize w8's touch ability.
Why would you want to use an external timer for it?

Use something else.

It's only available to the Philippines Windows Store, but you CAN actually download it, just change your PC's location (Go to search, then search "Change Location", then pick Philippines)

I will upload the version that will be currently available to all Store regions as soon as I fix some issues and add some much-needed features.

Not really planning to integrate it with the StackMats unfortunately. And yeah, StachuK1992 is right, since it's Windows 8 and it's primarily focusing on supporting touch devices, so it's aiming really to support touch rather than connecting other device.

 

[StachuK1992]

I did not have to change ANY settings to download the app.
I clicked the link at the top and just downloaded; no troubles at all, either on my Surface Pro or laptop, both with Win8.

I am definitely not in the Philippines.

make it world wide now as there is only 1 other timer on the windows store which sucks!
