The ultimate debate timer for judges, coaches, and debaters. Designed to make timing rounds effortless so you can focus entirely on the flow and your ballot. Fully supports Extemp Debate, Public Forum (PF), and Lincoln Douglas (LD). Features: Pre-Built Formats: Just select your debate style and the app automatically builds the entire sequence of speeches, cross examinations, and prep time pools. Pro Landscape Mode: Rotate the screen when any timer is running to get a massive, distraction free full screen timer. You can easily turn the screen to face the debaters so they can track their own remaining time. Immersive Alerts: Choose between audio bells, heavy haptic vibrations, and LED camera flashes for 30 second warnings and when time is up. The rear LED flash is specially designed for when you have the screen facing the competitors, keeping you perfectly in the loop on timing from the back of the phone! Judge Scripts: Expandable speaker notes for every stage tell you exactly who is speaking and for how long. Advanced Round Analytics: Provide better feedback on your ballots. The analytics dashboard uses stacked bar charts to visualize exactly how much speaking and prep time each team (and individual PF speakers) used, left unused, or went into overtime. Integrated Coin Toss: Public Forum judges can use the built in 3D animated coin flipper to start the round. Smart Sequencing: The app tracks your progress, highlights the active stage, and lets you jump back and forth with intelligent auto-completion. Customizable: Quickly toggle sound, light, and vibration preferences right from the main screen. They save automatically for your next flight. Our Story: This app is the brainchild of and was written by Lucas M (13yo) and Max M (16yo), two brothers who have both competed in middle school debate. They worked together to devise and code all of the app's features, and they asked me to publish it on their behalf for free as a gift back to the speech and debate community from which they have benefitted so much. Keep time with confidence!
