UbiStage Timer
Read full descriptionHide full description
A stage clock for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV β synced across every display. Many teams start timer apps manually on multiple devices. The result: clocks drift apart. UbiStage Timer solves this. One device becomes the Control Console, all others sync automatically β virtually lag-free. Devices find each other automatically over local Wi-Fi. No setup, no pairing. Sign in once with a free account, then just open and go. One Control Console, multiple screens. Use iPhones and iPads simultaneously as stage clocks β all showing the same time. Syncing is fully local, no internet needed during the event. On the big screen, too: with UbiStage Timer on Apple TV, any large display or projector becomes a stage clock. Apple TV signs in without typing on the remote β it shows a code that you confirm here in the app under Profile β Sign in Apple TV. The automatic color change tells speakers how much time is left: the digits turn orange in the last minute and red when time is up. No need to read numbers β speakers can tell at a glance. The Control Console can also send short text messages directly to all displays β perfect for spontaneous corrections during the event. The connection holds up under pressure: if the Control Console briefly switches to another app, displays simply keep counting and find it again on their own. Ideal for conferences, stage productions, trade shows, and live events. Free with two displays during the beta. Activate a Timer Key in the app to unlock more synced displays.
