## What is Chukka Timer?

ChukkaTimer is the essential polo timing app — whether you're umpiring a club match or just keeping track for your team.

**SIMPLE TIMER**
Start a 7-minute chukka timer with one tap. Configurable chukka length and extra time. Audible bells at the 30-second warning and end of chukka — just like on the field.

**FULL GAME MODE**
Set up a complete match with team names, colours, handicaps, and score tracking. ChukkaTimer handles the handicap calculation automatically, so you can focus on the game. Track scores chukka by chukka with full history.

**LIVE GAME SHARING — NEW**
Share your match with anyone. Tap the share button to get a link and QR code. Spectators open the link in any browser and see live scores, a real-time countdown timer, team colours, chukka progress, and handicap details — no app required. Perfect for friends and family who want to follow along.

**LIVE ACTIVITIES**
Keep the timer visible on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island while you're on the field. Glance down and see exactly how much time is left without unlocking your phone.
