Use the Presentation Timer on iPad (VRIFY App 5.7.0)

Learn how to time your presentation with a countdown or elapsed timer on iPad.

Overview

The Presentation Timer on iPad helps you stay within your allotted time, especially when you present from a podium and can’t check your watch. You can count down from a set length or track how much time has elapsed.

The timer shows only on your device. Your audience can’t see it when you present at a podium.

Note: This feature is only available in the VRIFY app version 5.7.0 and later. See How to Update the VRIFY App.

Step by Step Instructions

The countdown timer changes colour to warn you when you’re in danger of going over. It turns yellow as you get close to the end, then red as time runs out.

If you keep presenting after the countdown ends, the timer stays red and shows a minus sign before the time you’ve gone over (-0:23, -0.22, -0.21, etc).
