StageCue Timer is a speaker timer you can read from far away. Set it on the lectern or hold it up from the front row: the time left is all that is on the screen. THE WHOLE SCREEN IS THE CUE • Big digits inside a ring of green, yellow and red • The ring shows the time used and how close the next color is • The whole screen turns yellow as the end nears, then red when time is almost up • After zero, overtime keeps counting on red, so you know exactly how far over you are MADE FOR THE STAGE • While the timer runs, the controls leave the screen. One tap brings them back • Turn your device sideways and the digits fill the full width • The screen stays on while the timer runs • On iPhone, a vibration marks each color change • The time stays right even if you leave the app and come back READY IN SECONDS • Presets from 5 to 60 minutes • Any custom time up to 23:59:59 • Choose when the color changes: automatic (20% and 10% left) or fixed points such as 5:00 and 1:00 • Prefer a dark screen? Turn off Fill the Screen with Color, and only the ring and digits change color FOR TALKS, CLASSES AND MEETINGS Presentations, conference sessions, lessons, pitches, sermons, debates, wedding speeches and any time limit you need to keep.
