In unimodular gravity, an unspecified cosmological constant appears as a variable canonically conjugate to a four-volume variable, the cosmological time. It was suggested that this time sets the conditions of quantum measurements and solves thereby the interpretation problems of quantum geometrodynamics. By analyzing the relationship of the cosmological time to hypertime (the collection of spacelike hypersurface), we highlight the difficulties of such a position.
