## What is Speaker Presentation Timer?

No longer do you have to pull yourself away from your audience to check the time. You no longer have to ask, "How am I doing for time?" nor, "How much time do I have left?"

In theatre, stage actors can never break the 4th wall. The 4th wall is the imaginary wall between the actor and the audience. Professional Speakers have the same limitation. 

Every time you look at your watch or run to the lectern to check your time, you pull yourself from the audience and their needs. You are essentially going from "I am being of service to you!" to "I am up here doing my job - and oh, yea, I have 5 minutes left!"

You can set Speaker Presentation Timer and the Pro Speaker Presentation Timer to prompt individual components of your speech and stealthily vibrate in your pocket (or on your watch) as you reach your critical sections.

With Pro Speaker Presentation Timer, only you will know you're on stage with a job to do.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I need as a pro speaker

*2026-02-09, version 1.2.5*

You get these situations on the pro circuit where certain AV teams don’t think it out (they are the angel and the devil of a speaker). In this case, it’s the old you can’t use your laptop, we won’t connect your laptop to the back (despite warnings that I’m on a Mac and you are on Windows and trust me they are different), and well you don’t want to hear by sob story.

ANYWAY … in this case, all of this PLUS no timer. So I use a LogiTech remote (R800) with a timer, perhaps the best remote ever made since the timer is onboard. (Spotlight is cool but timer is digital AND DOES NOT WORK ON the MAC). Well in this case I’m not using my laptop so .. they give me an advancer, with no timer. No clock on the floor. The old we will show you a Yellow card and Red card at 5 out and times out — like a soccer game. Didn’t know we went back 30 years.

I want to use my Apple watch BUT the timer hides seconds (grrrr Apple). I could use a stopwatch — but not haptics and well…

FINALLY someone built an app that does the job - and this was it. Loaded it up. Set up haptic warnings, always on, synch’d to my watch. In my books I write about how every day people walk by problems that they could solve or make better with technology — this was a great example of someone not walking by.

WORTH EVERY PENNY … tremendous backup option for me and ACTUALLY might get me using the Spotlight remote since it has better distance and features, but the timer is a non-starter.

### 1/5 — Can’t upgrade to use on my Apple Watch

*2023-01-24*

I like what I see but when I go to “upgrade” to the paid version the app on my iPhone 14 it just closes and never upgrades.  If this changes I’ll update this post.  Otherwise… avoid this app.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry for the hiccup. You should be able to upgrade to the newest version now. I am still working on a couple of enhancements - so please keep checking back.

### 1/5 — Kein Kauf möglich

*2022-11-05, version 1.1*

Diese App ist genau das was ich gesucht habe. Die Pro-Version ist für 10€ zwar extrem teuer, aber ich wollte es versuchen. 
Ging leider nicht, da die App beim Versuch abstürzt.

### 2/5 — Bug bei Apple Watch

*2021-09-24, version 1.1*

An sich ist die App eine feine Sache. Ich habe vor allem eine App für eine Präsentation gebraucht, mit der man auch die Apple Watch nutzen kann. 
Dafür braucht’s die Pro Version, welche mit 10€ ganz schön teuer ist. 

Egal 
Danach funktionierte es mit der Watch auch. Sie vibriert, bei den einzelnen Unterteilungen. 

ABER!!!

WARUM geht das nur, solange der Bildschirm an ist??? Sobald der Bildschirm der Watch nach 15s aus geht, gibt die App kein Ton oder Vibration von sich. 
WAS SOLL DAS? 

So wird’s also doch nur aufm Handy genutzt und die 10€ hätt ich mir sparen können. 
DANKE

### 5/5 — A cool way to get prompted

*2021-04-23, version 1.1*

I like that each section of the speech can be timed and will prompt to move on.  I love the watch app. I do all my presentations with just the vibration alerts.  Well done

### 4/5 — A great tool for speaker!

*2020-10-25*

Hoping the icon can look better!

Also hoping the App allows to adjust the time color change from the current default 5-2-0 minutes!

Looking forward to the next update!

**Developer response:** If you click the gear wheel next to default timers, you can deactivate them, then use the regular timing to define the last parts of your speech. 
Thanks for being awesome
Marc
