I am interested in a clock app that in addition to seconds also shows deciseconds.

I searched and could not find one yet. Is there any widget for Android that shows deciseconds (like this: 11:51:32.1)?

I'm unsure if that level of accuracy is even available in Android. – Sparx May 28 '12 at 18:24
A timer or stopwatch type of apps may provide this feature, but I doubt any "regular" clock apps would. Why do you need such level of clock accuracy? Is there a problem you are trying to solve? – Chahk Dec 5 '12 at 14:30
I'm not sure why there are votes to close here. This is a valid question for this site. – Al Everett Dec 5 '12 at 14:32
Agreed with @AlEverett. I thought that maybe close votes were for "app shopping" reason, but they are all for "too localized". – Chahk Dec 5 '12 at 14:36
Is there a specific reason why you reverted the previous edits to your question? You have re-introduced several grammar and spelling errors for no immediately obvious reason. – eldarerathis♦ Dec 5 '12 at 17:01

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet.

It's not possible to create a widget that updates that often, because it will suck your battery really quickly. There are many stopwatch apps available in the Play Store. Many of them have millisecond or decisecond accuracy, but I'm not aware of any that have an associated widget.

These kind of high precision timers should only be needed on a case-to-case basis, so it's not worth it for them to be on the homescreen.
