Freaked me out for a second and had to double check that my tablet comes with a stop watch without having to download an app WITH ADS!!!!! Does he earn money for displaying these ads in his video too? I find it hard to believe that a content creator with sponsors is forced to use an ad supported app. Something about it being a stopwatch really just adds the cherry on top

I wonder if he wanted it to be bigger? The stopwatch on iOS doesn’t quite fill the screen as the one he used does.

Then use $1.99 from the sponsors to remove the ads????

Later in the video you see a clearer picture of apparently the same tablet and timer app, and no ad.

[dylan604]

I saw what I thought was no ad, but you could still see the little widget in the upper right hand corner that still revealed where the ad would appear like when you manually click close ad on a website.

Not everyone wants to spend 2$ on a stopwatch app they can use for free and will only use it once.

That's part of being a content creator. Producing content has expenses. When you cheap out on it, it looks obvious and people will comment. Hi

People are significantly biased not to pay for computer things. Except for Apple users. Any mobile developer knows Apple users will pay for things a lot more than Android users.

That's why smart people use Android.

[direwolf20]

No, smart people use Android because you can install apps on it that the manufacturer doesn't approve of.

For now. When that changes soon, smart people will start having two phones, one of which runs Linux or GrapheneOS.

Ugh, let me get my eyes returned from rolling so far to the back of my head. As if Android doesn't have adware apps.
