Timekept

Nice app Philip!

哈哈哈大笑

So I love the app all around but I has one flaw the changing prep time setting doesn’t work, PF got an update for 4 mins of prep instead of 3 if this could be fixed that would be much appreciated. Or at least make it so I can adjust prep time

Nice

The timer worked great before the new update, it broke the prep timer, now pressing the prep timer button just starts main timer.

This timer is well thought out. I used to use “Debate Mobile” but it stopped being updated by its developers. There are many nicer parts of this timer in comparison and I think the “deliberation” and “adjudication” sections are nice to help keep the judges accountable as well. One thing I wish it had that DM used is a way to set the prep time to a standard “8” “5” or “10” minutes depending on the tournament you’re at. I wish the prep timer also kept track of time remaining as well as time used since that’s what debaters usually care more about. It’d be nice if it showed, say for a tournament using 8 minute prep, both that 2m30s had been USED but also that 5m30s REMAINING. That’s the only thing I find myself missing from Debate Mobile. Otherwise it’s a great timer, and particularly if you judge multiple formats frequently like me!

This app was perfect for me as a first time judge. I was able to use a similar format to our school, I emailed the authors and they added the unique format my state high school association uses, Classic Debate.

Sometimes the app glitches and the background is red instead of yellow/green and as a result it also won't play sounds so i have to do it manually. Other than that, great app. Really appreciate the Dutch parliamentary system. ☺️

I'm new to judging college debate, so this kind of help with time management is a huge asset! It keeps me on track, and I can't easily make timing mistakes when it's in use! 1,000 thanks.

This is a wonderful tool for timing all different formats of debate. The developer is responsive and added a format on request. Well worth it! Every debater should have this app!
