Professional setup

Use the simple timer first, then graduate to controlled timing.

Use estimating systems, insurer photo requirements, vehicle records, repair procedures, customer authorizations, and shop safety rules as the source of truth.

Use the timer for photo-capture pacing only, not for damage assessment, repair estimate, insurance, liability, vehicle safety, or billing decisions.

Keep estimate photos, VIN records, damage notes, upload logs, insurer notes, and customer authorization records in the approved DMS, repair order, fleet, rental, parts, customer, or safety system.

Use an XTimer room when estimators, body shop advisors, customers, insurance coordinators, and shop managers need one shared collision estimate photo capture countdown.
