Free Facilitation Timer
Use a facilitation timer for workshops, design sessions, retrospectives, brainstorms, decision blocks, breaks, and share-outs. Keep the room moving and create an XTimer room when a facilitator needs remote control.
Built for this job
Facilitators can make invisible timeboxes visible to the group.
Workshops keep enough time for discussion, decisions, and close.
XTimer rooms let a co-facilitator control the timer while the room sees a clean display.

Use this setup in XTimer
Need a controller link, viewer display, or shared room?
Keep this simple timer for quick work. Move into an XTimer room when one person controls the clock and another screen shows it to a speaker, team, class, or audience.
Presets that match real work
Start from a timer people already understand.
Each preset has a clear use case, duration, and workflow. That makes the page useful for search visitors immediately, and gives professional users a natural path into XTimer rooms when they need separate controller and viewer devices.
