Performance Timer 4+

this has the simple interface i was looking for to use when performing live. however, i’d love to be able to switch the time from countdown to normal time. my sets aren’t an exact time, i just need to know how long i’ve been playing.

This timer really is the perfect timer. It is simple and easy to use. I place the timer on the front pew, about 20-30 feet away, and I can easily read the numbers. I never have to look at a watch, look down at a podium, or try to calculate the current time minus the starting time off the wall clock while under the pressure of speaking. It sets easily to the length I want and my phone stays on the entire time so there is no reopening the phone every few minutes to see it. I use it every time I speak, and even though I hope to never have to see it, the numbers go red and continue to count when time is up so you can still track your time for as long as you talk.

This is the best timer when recording timed messages. The display is large enough to be seen across the room and when you go over the time limit it starts counting up to show how long you went over on you presentation. In addition there is no alarm when time is up, which is one of the reasons I got this App.
