Step-by-step countdown

Free Sequential Timer

Use a sequential timer for routines, workshops, classroom stations, cooking steps, rehearsal blocks, and repeated workflows. Create a visible sequence so each step starts when the previous one ends.

Built for this job

Users can run a chain of timed steps without manually resetting each timer.

Groups can see the current step and the next step at a glance.

Sequential workflows can move into XTimer rooms when the display and controller should be separate.

Use XTimer rooms for sequences shown on a classroom, workshop, or production display.

Frequently asked questions

What is a sequential timer?

A sequential timer runs multiple timed steps in order, so the next segment begins after the current one ends.

Can I use a sequential timer for stations?

Yes. Add work and transition segments for each station so groups know when to move.

Can I control the sequence from another device?

Yes. Create an XTimer room when the timer needs a separate controller and viewer display.
