CueTimer

About

Stay on time. Own the room.

CueTimer is the countdown timer built specifically for presenters, speakers, trainers, educators, and anyone who needs to manage time on stage — without losing focus on their audience.

Open it as a popup or expand to full screen. Set your duration, hit Start Presentation, and CueTimer handles the rest.

───────────────────────────── FEATURES ─────────────────────────────

⏱ COUNTDOWN TIMER Set any duration from 1 minute to hours. Quick presets for the most common slots: 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, and 60 minutes.

⚡ VISUAL ALERTS — SCREEN FLASH When you hit a milestone (10 min, 5 min, 2 min, time's up) the entire screen flashes. No glancing at your phone. The feedback comes to you.

📳 VIBRATION ALERTS Configurable vibration patterns for each milestone — Single, Double, Triple, SOS, Burst and more. Designed for Chrome on Android where you can keep your phone on the podium.

🔔 PRE-STAGE MODE Counting down to your start time, not just through your slot. Set the session start time and CueTimer shows a wall-clock countdown so you know exactly when to walk on.

💡 DISTANCE MODE One tap switches to oversized digits readable from across a stage. No squinting.

🔴 OVERTIME COUNTER When time expires, the timer doesn't stop — it flips to a red overtime counter so you always know how far over you've run.

🔒 WAKE LOCK Screen stays on while your timer is running. No more returning to a locked device mid-talk.

🌙 DARK & LIGHT MODE Works in both themes. Dark mode is the default for stage environments.
