How To: Sequential Timers

1. Select a timer group you want to create a sequence with.

2. Toggle on the sequential timer setting.

You may sequence your timers to the desired order by pressing and holding on the timer you’d like to move and dragging it to the place in the order you would like it to be.

How to create a Timer.

To create a Timer, click the + icon in the top right corner.

You have two options: 1) Customize Timer; or, 2) Quick Set Timer.

CUSTOMIZE TIMER are for Timers that are intended to be saved, customized and used over and over again. Users have the option of naming Timers and choosing the disk color and alert sound. The most unique and value oriented feature is that users can scale the Timer to any amount of time duration (from 1 second to 99 hours). This is perfect for applications that involve interval training in large or small units of time. Click Save in the top right corner and your Timer is ready to use!

 

QUICK SET TIMER is intended to be a very quick and easy to start Timer. It operates exactly like a traditional standalone Time Timer. When time is up, users do have the option of replaying. 

If you would like to add or subtract time while the timer is in use, first pause the timer, then swipe up to the timer settings to edit your timer. Your timer settings will update automatically, so just swipe down and hit play to resume.

 

Please note that the timer must be paused before changing the duration. This ensures that no one can manipulate the timer while it is in use - like small children that are being monitored!

How to delete a Timer.

You can delete Timers in multiple ways.

 

1. In the List View: 

Right-swipe a Timer in the List View screen. Select the trash icon.

You will then receive a pop up confirming that you would like to delete your timer.

2. In the Timer View:

You can swipe up to view the settings. Scroll all the way to the bottom and select the “Delete Timer” option.

You will then receive a pop up confirming that you would like to delete your timer.

Note:Deleting a Timer is permanent. Whenever a user tries to Close or Delete a Timer there is always an option to cancel.

How to edit a Timer.

To edit a timer, select the timer you would like to edit and simply swipe up on the bottom settingsdrawer.

From there you will be able to edit the name, duration, repeats, color, sounds, and more.

To edit a timer for list view, right-swipe on the timer and select the edit icon (pencil icon).

Your options to edit will be the same, but you will need to press “Save” in the top right corner to ensure your changes are saved.

How to set a repeating Timer.

You can set a timer to repeat using the "Repeats" setting. It will automatically loop as many times as you'd like!

 

When creating a timer or editing a timer, under the Timer Duration, you will see the “Repeat” setting. Select the – and + buttons to edit the number of repeats you want.

When a Timer has been saved and is active, at the bottom of the screen you will see the Repeats icon. The repeat Icon will show how many repeats are completed out of the total number.

Will the Time Timer App Update work on my phone?

If your phone runs Android 11 or newer and has Google Play, then the Time Timer mobile app will run on your device.

The Time Timer App is not working on my Chromebook. What should I do?

To resolve this issue, please follow these steps:

 

1. Check Android Version: Make sure your Chromebook’s Android version is at least Android 10. You can find this information by searching for ‘Android version’ in the settings menu.

2. Update Your Chromebook: If your Android version is below 10, update your Chromebook. Updating to the latest version of ChromeOS should also update the Android version to Android 13, which is compatible with the Time Timer app.

3. Minimum Requirements: The Time Timer app requires a minimum of Android 10 (released in 2020) to function properly on any Android device.

 

By ensuring your device meets these requirements, you should be able to use the Time Timer app on your Chromebook.

Will I lose my saved Timers when I update to the latest version of the app?

No. When users upgrade to the new version of the Android app, they will not lose Timers that have already been saved.

Can I install an older version of the app?

No. Only the most up-to-date version of the app is available to be installed. App updates are a result of extensive outreach and testing to make sure that the Time Timer universe of users were ready for a change and that this was exactly what they wanted. The new design and subsequent changes are the direct result of user feedback that’s been collected over the years.

All users will be notified when an update is available through the Google Play Store.

I purchased a new device or accidentally deleted the App. Do I have to buy the app again?

If you have already purchased the App once, then the App Store or Google Play Store should give you the option to re-download it if you are logged into the Google Account you used to purchase the app. There is no need to purchase the app again.

What is the difference between a Quick Set Timer and Custom Timer?

A Quick Set Timer is fixed and numbered where the disk is always a fraction of 60 minutes. It looks and works exactly like our standalone Timers.

A Custom Timer is a Timer that is scaled to any time duration. The full disk can represent anything from 1 second up to 99 hrs. Custom Mode is ideal for activities where you need much more or much less than 60 minutes.

What is the “List View” screen?

You can toggle between Timer and List view (located at the bottom right corner).

The list view serves as the main page and library of saved Timers. It also includes the + icon for creating new Timers.

What does "Repeats" mean?

This is the number of times your Timer will count down. For example, if you set the Timer for 7 Plays, it will count down once and then repeat 6 times.

I am running several Timers at once. How do I tell when one has ended?

First, the Timer will say “expired” across the face.

Second, a notification will appear that signals when a timer has expired. It will include the Timer name/ title. 

Third, you can set a different Tone for each Timer, and hear which one has finished when the Tones go off.

In the list view, completed timers will be grayed out when complete.

How do I prevent my device from falling asleep while Timers are running?

Go to your Time Timer Application “Settings”. Turn on "Awake Mode". Once the Awake Mode is on, the Time Timer App will keep the screen on as long as a Timer is actively running.
