Professional setup

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

Protect practice time instead of treating it as optional.

Use visible break timers when participants need to return at the same time.

Keep final Q&A and next steps separate so the session closes clearly.

Use XTimer rooms for classroom screens, remote cohorts, and assistant-controlled timing.
