Sharing timer and event agenda

Stagetimer allows you to create multiple timers and share them with others in a few different ways. The controller page can be shared with production staff, while the moderator link allows access only to the agenda and message control. The viewer link allows presenters to see timers and messages. And the wider audience can see the full program with the agenda link.

Every link can be protected with a Pro subscription or Event license. They can also be shared via QR code.

Viewer

Share a fullscreen view of the timer with presenters using the viewer link. Whatever you choose to display on the controller page will also be viewed by the presenters. You can use it to display a timer, Time of Day (clock), title, speaker, messages and progress bar, or any combination of these elements.

For a cleaner look, you can also opt to remove the Stagetimer logo on the paid version, while all other elements are free to use or remove.

To present only the timer or a combination of timer and clock, simply go to “Actions” on top of the timers section on the controller page and hide all titles and speakers. You can also remove the progress bar by going to “Customize” with a paid account.

Controller

The controller page link allows access to production staff or other collaborators to add and run timers, create and send messages to speakers, and control connected devices. Only the room owner, however, can customize the room. To learn more about all the features on the controller page, check out the detailed Controller Page Documentation.

This link should be shared with people you trust to run the event. If you only want the person to send messages while having restricted access to the controls, it’s better to share the moderator link.

Moderator

The moderator link is ideal for staff and collaborators that need to communicate with presenters without having access to other controls. The page displays a dynamic agenda of the entire event, while also allowing the person to create and display messages directly on the presenter’s screen.

When generating a link or QR code, you may also choose to share the notes with the moderator. To do so, first, check the box, then copy the link. This allows you to generate both a link with and without the notes.

Agenda

The agenda link can be used both to keep staff and presenters in the loop or to share it with a wider audience. It allows access to a dynamic agenda of the event with the start time, duration, title, and speaker for each section of the program. This can be used for events, meetings, presentations, live-streaming, and much more.

If using it with staff, you may want to share specific information which can be added as notes on the controller page. To do so, simply click on the pencil or gear icon on the individual timer to add the notes. These will not be displayed on the viewer link.
