Soapbox Timer vs WalkWrite

Soapbox is an essential timekeeper app for anyone preparing or delivering a Pecha Kucha or Ignite presentation. At a single glance, the clear display shows the slide number and time remaining, helping you stay focused and make the most of every second. If you want to keep your eyes on the audience without glancing at the display for slide changes, just switch the settings to enable a beep or vibrate as each slide ends. "Fantastic! A must-have for presentations" Jim Shorthose, Pecha Kucha organiser, Nottingham, UK Soapbox is brought to you by a small team, working hard to deliver regular feature updates. We would love to know what we can do to make preparing and delivering quick-fire presentations even easier, so please get in touch using the feedback form.

In the past I have paid a bunch of money in subscriptions for apps like this. This app requires none of that, it has no backend. The only reason I am charging is so I can keep the app up to date for you, add features, and add the latest models as they become available. But with this app: Your Data = Your Business WalkWrite stores audio in Files  - On My iPhone  - WalkWrite/Audio and text in a small encrypted database. Delete a note and it’s gone—no replicas on someone else’s server. FAQ: Why is the app so large? The AI models are included with your app download, no other downloads required, no data sent anywhere. Is there a monthly or annual subscription? No, none. Is there an account required? No, none. Where are the notes stored? On your device and only shared if you chose to share them.
