If you often facilitate training classes, workshops, or “Lean Coffee” meetings, you know how important it is to timebox group activities and show a big, visual timer to the audience to guide their exercises. That’s exactly where Big Countdown Timer comes in.
Key Features
- Countdown timer from 1 sec to 10 hours.
- Resizable window to take up as much (or little) screen real estate as you want.
- Stop/start/reset and set.
- Multiple alarm sounds.
- macOS notification when time is up.
- Options: repeat alarm sound, flash window, and keep window on top (even works with PowerPoint and Keynote in presentation mode).
- Once countdown is active, screensaver and sleep are disabled.
- Support for dark mode.
It’s as easy and simple as that!
