SC_Timer

SC_Timer is a small software application whose purpose is to help you time all sorts of tasks and projects with the aid of a countdown timer and stopwatch. It is particularly useful for timing speakers during conferences.

The utility is portable so you can keep it stored on pen drives or other similar devices to take it with you all the time. Plus, you may gain access to the GUI by running the executable file. It does not affect your Windows registry.

The application sports a big white countdown display which reveals the time in a blue background. What’s more, you can make the main window as large as your screen so speakers can easily track the time and manage their speeches.

What’s more, the tool comes with support for visual alerts. For example, the program is able to notify a speaker ten minutes before the time is over by turning the display to yellow and showing red characters when there are only five minutes until the end of the speech.

A help manual is comprised in the package and includes useful details about the configuration process.

SC_Timer offers you the possibility to check out the current time displayed directly in the main window (in hours, minutes, and seconds). You are allowed to start or stop the timer, reset or close the timer, add or remove one minute to/from the current session, as well as count up or down.

A few configuration settings are hidden under the hood for helping you set the total, notice, and warning duration values (in minutes and seconds). You may also make use of preset hotkeys for adding or removing a certain number of minutes (from 1 up to 9)  to/from the remaining time.

To sum things up, SC_Timer comes packed with several handy features for helping you time public speaking sessions or other tasks.
