ap, gadget or watch recommendation, please

I have been avoiding a certain pizza shop because it asks for the exact time down to the second for several events in the shop. I have no idea how to get that information. Do you have an app, gadget or watch to recommend? It's not asking for how many minutes and seconds, it's asking for the exact time down to the second.

Yes...."those shops"... My iphone has a timer. Use LAPS so you can get timing between "hello", toppings, pay, pick-up, etc. I am not coordinated enough to manage pressing the timer and being able to speak intelligently to anyone, and remember names/descriptions, so I don't do these shops anymore.

I also use the lap timer built in to my phone's clock app. I split the screen if I need to take notes.

If I only had a brain, lol.

There was some weird squicky thing where I had to record the exact time of arrival. For example, it would appear on the survey as 12:0I:01. had to get that from a timer. For everything else, I used the phone's stopwatch.

So, how are you getting the seconds when you write down the time you enter the store, for instance? I only know how to get the hour and minutes. I am assuming the pizza requires hour minutes and seconds, as it 5:14:05pm?

I don't do this particular shop, but you can download an app for that which will tell you the exact time (for example: 12:04:21) and you hit the button discreetly as you go. There are several that will do that, just look in the playstore.

I record the shop using a app on my phone. Do not answer your phone if it rings as that can disrupt the microphone. It allows me to clear my throat, sniff, or make any normal sound to mark key events. If they have a name tag, you can use their name when talking to them.

What app do you use? Sounds really handy.

I use Mystery Stopwatch. It keeps track of time to the second and elapsed time.

Your phone should have a built in voice recorder app. The app stores have free ones as well.

Gear S2 watch with a face that has seconds... screenshot (it's SUPER simple) each timing. Both my hands are always free and i can take notes on my watch using my finger to write

Text yourself.

My text program does not show seconds. I use the Clock app that came with my Android phone (in stopwatch mode).
