Agile event timebox

Free Scrum Ceremony Timer

Use a Scrum ceremony timer for daily standups, sprint planning, sprint review, retrospective, backlog refinement, parking lot items, and action owners.

Built for this job

Scrum masters can keep ceremonies inside their intended timeboxes.

Teams can see current and next segments without asking the facilitator.

Remote agile meetings can use a shared viewer while the facilitator controls timing.

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.

Professional setup

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

Do not use one timer for every agile event; pick the preset that matches the meeting.

Keep parking lot and action owner time visible.

Use shorter segments when teams are new to timeboxing.

Use XTimer rooms when a scrum master needs a controller and the team needs a shared display.
