Stage timer
A big countdown for a speaker, on a second screen.
What it does
A big countdown for a speaker, shown on a separate screen, with messages: a small stage control room.
- Open the stage screen: a window to drag onto the projector or the stage monitor; double-click it for full screen. Or Full screen here on a tablet or a laptop facing the speaker. The preview shows exactly what the stage sees.
- Start, pause, −1 / +1 min, reset. A duration, or finish at a given time.
- The digits turn orange in the last minutes (1, 2 or 5); at zero, the whole screen turns orange and counts the overtime (+0:32). A soft sound tells you here (never on stage).
- Message on stage: type it or tap a quick one; the stage screen blinks to catch the speaker’s eye. Flash blinks it again.
- Run of show: the parts of the event and their length. The current one shows at the top of the stage screen, the next one at the bottom; Next loads it and starts it.
- The time of day can show in a corner of the stage screen.
Good to know
The stage screen must be on this device (a second window, a second screen plugged in): nothing goes through a server. The screen stays on while the stage screen is open.
Free, no account, nothing is sent: it runs in your browser, even offline.
