Step 4: Remote Control Your Timer

What’s more, Stagetimer allows you to remotely control your timers. After you create a room and set up your timers, you can adjust the start time, duration, schedule timers, and add extra information, all from a different location. This means your timer can be displayed on one screen while you control it from another.
