Use this optional timer for a shared explanation or practice interval. Agree its purpose first; it does not automatically end anyone’s turn.
Say whether you are timing the explanation, a sample round or a pause. Avoid quietly turning a learning activity into a speed challenge.
The display shows the remaining interval. It gives no score, judges no player and sends no notification after the page closes.
Pause stops the countdown and lets you resume from the remaining time. Reset returns to the selected full duration and clears the active interval.
When time runs out, the tool displays a message without sound. The group decides what happens next; the timer has no authority over the game’s rules.
A few preferences can help the host decide what to demonstrate first.
