Free Docent Tour Timer
Use a docent tour timer for welcome, object focus, context, discussion, questions, and transition. Create an XTimer room when docents, visitors, educators, volunteers, and group leaders need shared docent tour timing.
Built for this job
Docent teams can separate welcome, object focus, context, discussion, questions, and transition.
Teams can see pacing without the timer replacing museum staff, docent scripts, gallery rules, educator plans, accessibility needs, security procedures, and visitor policies.
XTimer rooms support shared docent tour timers across docents, visitors, educators, volunteers, and group leaders devices.

Professional setup
Use the simple timer first, then graduate to controlled timing.
Use museum staff, docent scripts, gallery rules, educator plans, accessibility needs, security procedures, and visitor policies as the source of truth.
Use the timer for docent pacing only, not for security, accessibility, visitor conduct, ticketing, legal, compliance, or emergency decisions.
Keep tour notes, docent scripts, visitor details, accessibility notes, gallery rules, and schedule updates inside approved travel, venue, school, transport, ticketing, or customer systems.
Use an XTimer room when docents, visitors, educators, volunteers, and group leaders need one shared docent tour countdown.
