For anyone who does presentations and needs a clearly visible timer - this is the one! The numbers are clear and the colors vibrant and you can set the timer to change colors on the minutes of your choosing. Only draw back is you can time yourself from only 99 minutes. I will double back and give this app 5 stars if you add a feature using the phone's clock so that you can start in the moment and set a hard stop time based on the clock, allowing the colors on the clock to change at preset intervals. Strong work here! Almost perfect.
There are lots of free presentation timers available on the Android market so when you pay for one you hope that it has something extra to offer. To some extent Presentation Clock does, the actual clock interface is minimalist and clear, and the clock performs as expected. It offers warning timers (sound or vibration) allowing presenters to be alerted before their time is up. However, there are some drawbacks to the application as it stands. There is no in-app volume control or notification sound control - these default to your general settings. This is a pity as you might want a specialised bell-sound and possibly extra-loud volume for alerting presenters. The app sort of runs in the background but there is no notification in the status bar, and the warning timers do not sound. Lastly, there is no option to blank the screen to save battery power. If the author can address these issues it would be more worthwhile paying for.
FINALLY, found the perfect presentation/speaker clock. Not only counts down but continues to count when time is up, so the speaker can see how much time s/he has gone over! Brilliant. Thanks
I would at least like it to still buzz when the screen is locked, but this does not happen. Pretty much useless for putting in my pocket during a speech, since I can't leave the screen on the whole time.
Use this app frequently. Love the large display and ease of use. It does occasionally pause on its own but otherwise simple to use and very helpful for keeping sermons and presentations to time.
Originally bought this app for my Kindle Fire. It does EXACTLY what I want\need. When I got a smartphone I needed it there ... and Google Play has it! Very LARGE numbers that can be seen across the room that advance smoothly with no 'ghost' artifacts.
Very easy to use, including the presets. Large digits with colour indication are ideal for timing the presentations.
Get this one. There are so many apps that do speech timing, this is the only one that gets it right that I have found.
It's nice simple presentation clock app, which works as advertised. Large numbers on the full screen with changing colors help me to see the parts of the client sessions. My suggestions: + Add the timers for more than 99 min. Some people have workshops for 2-3 hours. + Give more than 3 parts and name each part of the presentation. This way along the time the presenter will be able to see the agenda of the presentation. + Ability to give different timers a name. Thanks!
Only thing is I wish it did hours too.
Excellent user interface & easy to use app - large digital face shows green time, then yellow, then red as deadline approaches. Vibration and/or sound indicates deadline and starts counting up. Very easy to configure - works great!
Still the best presentation timer I've found for Android. It might not have been updated for years but it does what is needed simply and effectively. Unfortunately on installing, it now says that it might not work, due to being created for an outdated version of Android, but I'm not seeing any issues with Android 9. One really cool feature I'd love to see is a 'remote control', so a 'slave' timer on one device on the lecturn could be set, started etc from the event techie's and/or M.C's phone.
