Blaster Lap Counting and Time Tracking Apps?

[RazorBack HCH]

Does anyone use the Track Attack or Track Addict apps for counting laps and lap times?

We practice at a lake that has a buoy course setup and I'd like to find a way to count how many laps I do and how fast each lap is. A normal handlebar counter could work but there appear to be some iPhone apps that could do that plus some analytics (top speed, etc.)

Just wanted to see if anyone is already doing this and find out how to best track laps and times.

Thanks.

A garmin watch linked to the strava app on your phone seems to work pretty well for most everything your looking for.

Thanks, Joe!

Does Strava track laps or just tell you overall mileage traveled? It looks like it just tracks miles traveled and I'm looking to count laps.

Yeah it might not count laps but you could do a single lap and then figure out how many. I think it does everything else? Good luck, let us know what you find.

I just bought a Garmin watch for the gym, will have to check if it is compatible. Thanks!

If you want to do the same calculations to count laps you could download the SpeedometerGPS app and use your phone. I've used the app for speed tests, also records your track.
