## What is TimePacer?

TimePacer is a timer for people who have to finish on time.

Set a planned duration for each agenda item and TimePacer works out when every item should start and end. While you present, it shows more than the countdown for the item in front of you: it shows whether you are ahead or behind for the talk as a whole. That is the number you actually need on stage.

WHILE YOU PRESENT
• Countdown for the current agenda item
• Progress bar that turns yellow near the end and red once you overrun
• Overall time in hand or time lost, to the second
• The clock time you should finish this item by
• Every item's status at a glance: done, running, not started

WHEN YOU CAN'T LOOK AT YOUR IPHONE
You can't hunch over a phone mid-talk. TimePacer puts the time somewhere you can actually see it.

• Apple Watch — your remaining time and overall pace, mirrored on your wrist. Advance to the next item, pause, or start early straight from the Watch. A haptic taps you at 60 seconds left and again when you overrun, so you don't even need to look.
• Live Activity and Dynamic Island — the countdown stays on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, visible even while another app is driving your slides.
• Notifications — close the app and you'll still be told when each item is up.

THREE WAYS TO BUILD AN AGENDA
• Type it in — name, duration, and notes
• Scan an image — point it at a screenshot or photo of your agenda slide and AI pulls out the items, durations, and start time
• Paste text — lines like "10:00-10:15 Opening" or "Intro 5 min" just work, including 24-hour, AM/PM, and Japanese time formats

SAVE THE AGENDAS YOU REUSE
Name and save a recurring meeting or a talk you give often, then load it next time. Start it from a Home Screen widget, or ask Siri and Shortcuts to run it.

REVIEW AFTERWARDS
When you finish, TimePacer shows planned versus actual for every item and the overall difference. Sessions are kept in a history, so patterns become visible — like the demo that always runs long.

NO TIME REALLOCATION
TimePacer deliberately won't push your lost minutes onto later items. If the finish time keeps moving, you can't plan around it. Instead it holds the original schedule and tells you honestly how much room you have left. What to cut is your call.

For lightning talks, conference keynotes, sales pitches, standing meetings, and online classes — anywhere the clock is not negotiable.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.8 — 2026-07-15

A stability release. This fixes the problems reported during long sessions.

• Fixed the timer disappearing during long sessions.
  When iOS terminated the app in the background, the running session was lost. TimePacer now saves your session and offers to resume it on the next launch. Elapsed time is recalculated from the real clock, so nothing drifts even if the app was gone for a while.

• Fixed the Dynamic Island and Apple Watch sometimes not showing the timer.
  The app was pushing state far too often and the system was throttling the updates. It now updates only when something meaningful changes, and it reattaches to a running Live Activity after a relaunch.

• Fixed the pre-start countdown freezing if you switched away from the app while waiting to begin.

• Added a confirmation prompt to the End button, so a mistap no longer stops a session you're timing.

• Fixed "parse error" failures when importing an agenda from an image. The main cause was the analysis being cut short on agendas with many items. Reading the result is also more tolerant of formatting variation now.

• Fixed the save dialog, where the overwrite targets ran off the bottom of the sheet and were hard to tap.

### 1.0.7 — 2026-05-20

What's New

• Smarter text import: title-only lines are no longer mistakenly added as 5-minute agendas. Skipped lines are reported back to you so nothing slips by silently.
• Wider time-format support: 12-hour clock (AM/PM), full-width digits and colon (０-９, ：), and Japanese-style notation ("10時-10時30分", "10時00分から10時30分") are all recognized.
• More reliable alarm haptics: the 60-second warning and overrun buzz no longer get dropped when returning from the background.
• Better image-analysis fallback: if parsing fails, switch straight to text input from the error dialog. Error messages now include a snippet of the AI's response so you can see what went wrong.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-05-04

■ Live Activity, Dynamic Island & StandBy
Pin the running timer to your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island.
Lay your phone sideways on a charger and StandBy turns into a desktop presentation clock.
Tap the × button on the Lock Screen to end a presentation instantly.

■ Saved Presentations Widget
Place your saved presentations on the Home Screen and start one with a single tap of the ▶ button.
Medium and Large sizes available, showing up to 5 presentations.

■ Siri Shortcuts
Trigger "Start Presentation in TimePacer" from the Shortcuts app, with a picker to choose from your saved presentations.

■ Sample Presentation
First-time launches now include "Sample: 5-min Lightning Talk" so you can try every feature right away.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-05-03

■ Live Activity & StandBy support

Pin the running timer to your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, so you can check your remaining time at a glance — even with your phone face down on the lectern.

Place your phone sideways on a charger and the timer takes over StandBy mode, turning your iPhone into a dedicated desktop presentation clock.

■ Other improvements
- Improved color contrast for the overall pace indicator
- More reliable Apple Watch sync

### 1.0.4 — 2026-04-30

Bug fixes:
- Fixed a crash that could occur when editing the duration of an agenda item.
