Timing questions
Is manual timing really free?
Yes. The Canichrono software is free in manual mode.
Do I need equipment?
No: a computer is enough. Times are taken by hand at the finish line and matched to bib numbers.
Which computers does it run on?
On Windows, on a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 and later) and on Linux (Debian 12 or later).
Can I import results timed with another tool?
Yes, Canicompet also imports results as CSV, with a preview and an error list before publication.
