## What is Tight Five?

Keep your set on time with Tight Five: Stage Timer—a focused timer for performers, presenters, open mic hosts, and show producers.

CLEAR AT A GLANCE
Large, steady white digits sit on a black background. A yellow glow signals your warning time; a red glow marks overtime. Clear labels identify each state. Gentle movement respects Reduce Motion, and Big Number Mode gives the digits extra weight.

YOUR PRESETS, READY TO GO
Save up to 12 timer presets. Choose your duration, warning time, and whether to count up or down. Start, pause, resume, and reset with simple controls. Edit, duplicate, and reorder your presets for the way you work.

SOUNDS YOU CAN RECOGNIZE
Choose from seven named alert sounds and preview them before selecting. Set separate warning and overtime sounds, or keep things silent. Background notifications use your selected sounds when notification permissions and device settings allow.

KEEP THE TIMER VISIBLE
The screen stays awake while a timer is running or paused with the app active. Visual and audio warnings can be enabled independently for each preset.

MADE FOR IPHONE AND IPAD
Use portrait or landscape to suit your setup. Tight Five: Stage Timer works offline, with no account to create.

A simple timer for the moments when timing matters.
