How to use

Co-present with speaker links

Use named speaker links so every presenter sees the timer, sends useful signals, and can control slides when it is their turn.

Shared Timerinator timer with presenter signal controls
Speaker links identify each co-presenter and unlock the controls they need during the shared session.

  1. Add the speakers

    Add each presenter with their name, initials, color, and optional avatar. Timerinator uses that identity in the timer, share links, speaker displays, and signals.

  2. Mark speaker changes

    For a PowerPoint timer, add SPEAKER: tags in the notes where each presenter begins. Timerinator uses those tags to identify the current and next speaker.

  3. Start sharing

    Choose File > Sharing in Timerinator and start the shared session. For details, see share a timer.

  4. Send each person the right link

    Send viewers the general participant link. Send each co-presenter their own speaker link so their name, initials, and permissions are correct.

  5. Use presenter signals

    Co-presenters can raise a hand, ask to pause, ask for a break, or ask the active presenter to speed up or slow down.

  6. Hand off slide control

    When a co-presenter is the current speaker, their timer can show previous and next slide controls. Those controls move PowerPoint on the host computer.
