Use a restaurant table turnover timer for guest exit, clear, sanitize, reset, host release, and next seating. Create an XTimer room when hosts, bussers, servers, and managers need shared table reset timing.

Professional setup

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

Use cleaning procedures, health rules, reservation systems, service standards, and manager instructions as the source of truth.

Use the timer for table reset pacing only, not for sanitation, seating, guest, labor, or safety decisions.

Keep reservation, waitlist, cleaning, and guest records inside approved systems.

Use an XTimer room when hosts, bussers, servers, and managers need one shared table turnover countdown.
