    The stopwatch is very simple. Tap start, and if you're timing yourself running then tap "Lap". That's your first lap, a lap around the living room for example. A very speedy 5 seconds. Press lap again, 7 seconds this time because we tripped over a toy, then stop.

    .
    Personally, I don't like to dim the screen, I like to turn it off because I run more than 5 seconds. But if you're doing something relatively quick and you don't want to actually turn the screen off, that's fine. You can do that with your stopwatch.
