Keep BP, World Schools, OPD, and other debates on time with clear phase colours, prep pages, POI timers, and optional alerts.
Timekept helps you focus on debating, not timekeeping. Designed for speakers, chairs, and adjudicators, it provides a clear iPhone and iPad timer for speech times while preventing your device from locking.
Track protected time, POI windows, prep pages, and speeches nearing their close with clear colour cues and optional sound, vibration, and flash alerts.
Timekept supports common debating styles from around the world, including:
- British Parliamentary, World Schools, Australs, Asian Parliamentary, OPD, Mace, Paris V, Irish Times, and Dutch Parliamentary.
- American styles such as Lincoln-Douglas, Public Policy, Public Forum, Congressional Debate, American Parliamentary, IPDA, NPDA, APDA, and Karl Popper.
- Australasian styles such as NZ/Australian Easters, Thropy, and Joynt Scroll.
- Canadian Parliamentary and CUSID variations.
- Public speaking formats such as Toastmasters and Pechakucha.
