Frequently Asked Questions

Can the presenter see the timer while presenting?

Yes. Open EasyTimer in a separate browser window or on a second monitor. Use fullscreen mode so the countdown is always visible while presenting.

Can the audience see the timer too?

Yes — project EasyTimer fullscreen on a shared screen, or embed it via OBS if you're running a virtual event on Zoom or Teams.

Can I set a warning when time is almost up?

EasyTimer flashes when the timer reaches zero. You can also use the custom text field to display a message like "2 mins left" by setting a second timer.
