ShareMyTimer: features, pricing and alternatives

About ShareMyTimer

ShareMyTimer creates shared countdown and count-up timers that stay synchronized in real time across viewers. You control the timer from a phone or laptop and display it fullscreen anywhere, sharing it with a link, QR code or joining code, without signup for the free timer.

Features include synchronized audio alerts, viewer messaging, styling and flash options, a controller view and, on paid plans, multiple timers that can be switched between. It targets classrooms (exams and timed activities), workshops, presentations, livestreams and events, and is compared against basic timers that offer one screen with no sharing. A clock view and a device sync indicator show timing across devices.
