What does Genshin Stopwatch do?

Genshin Stopwatch is a program that makes checking timers easier without launching the game (Examples: Stamina, Fishing, Gardening, Enemy Respawns, Parametric Transformer, etc...).

Windows version of Genshin Stopwatch

How are my stopwatches saved?

When you create a stopwatch or close the application, your stopwatches will save to the save.txt file. The save file is easily configurable and easy to read.

Here is an example of a stopwatch's save data in save.txt:

[2589221199520]
name = Respawns
time finished = 2023-05-28 11:34:14
time original duration = 12:00:00
border color = #37AA9C
notes = Hilichurl Camps

What platforms is this compatible with?

Win 10 and up, MacOS, and Linux versions are available.

MacOS/Linux versions are not tested so if there's any issues please submit an issue

Android and iOS is also underway! Release TBD

It doesn't work!

Please make sure you're on the latest version

Before submitting a bug report please check the known bugs in the latest release notes before telling me.

On Windows: The program is accessible through the system tray (Up arrow next to the volume mixer) when running in the background.

  • Check save.txt and make sure it looks in a similar format to the example above.
  • The program needs save.txt and config.ini to start, so if there isn't one in the directory create a text file with the same name or redownload the program.
  • Genshin Stopwatch only works on Windows.
  • Check config.ini and make sure it looks similar to when you downloaded the program.
  • If you upgraded from a version below 1.4 to 1.4+ but kept your save.txt and settings.txt the same, then you have outdated save/setting file formats. Please see save/settings rewrite if you want to keep your settings/stopwatches

If you found a bug or crash, please report it to me and show how to replicate the issue if possible.

Does this program run on system startup?

Yes! But you have to do a couple steps to do so, follow the instructions below.

On Windows:

  1. Create a shortcut of the .exe
  2. Press win + r
  3. Type in shell:startup this will take you to your startup directory
  4. Place the shortcut in folder

You can disable run on startup by going to task manager -> startup

On MacOS:

  1. Click the Apple icon and click System Settings
  2. Go to General -> Login Items
  3. Click the plus button then Applications -> Select the app -> Open

You may need to enable Allow in the Background

On Linux:

Every distro is different so you have to do this research on your own, sorry. 😓

Future Plans?

  • Background pictures to choose from for the timers?
  • Translations? (Not sure if this is necessary but if people want it I will make an effort)
  • Mobile version? In development! Release is still TBD

If you have a suggestion let me know on the issues page or DM me on my socials!
