Survey 123 Stopwatch/Timer

It would be very useful to have a stopwatch timer question type available. If one is in the field collecting data of a tablet or phone it is very awkward to have to use a separate device to to collect time. We currently work around this by having two time question and taking the difference, but in practice this seems to be a clunky workaround. It would be uch cleaner to have a dedicated timer question type.

I agree this would be nice - we have a survey where observations are recorded across five minutes. The observer indicates during which minute interval the observation was made (1st minute, 2nd minute, etc). Having a time to calculate that would be good.

I concur, this would be a wonderful addition. Does anyone know of current work arounds?

Yes, this would be useful. I am having trouble with my technicians following a simple survey instruction for 5 minutes to account for the effort in models. It would be awesome if the survey wouldn't let them continue until after the time set.
