Live Time for Android

I use this timer as the stage manager for “The Contenders," an annual film-related showcase for Oscar voters. It’s easy to set up and keeps our event on time! As stage manager, I have this OS version installed on my Android Air. An Mobile running LiveTime Viewer sits onstage on a coffee table in front of the event moderator/interviewer. It shows the moderator a countdown of the time for each segment. I can also type custom messages to the moderator — “Wrap it Up,” “Thank the guest,” “Remember the second film clip” Colors of the fonts and background are easily changeable, so they’re easily noticed by the moderator. If he isn’t wearing his reading glasses (which has happened), he can still easily see that the background of the screen has changed from black to RED. Our group of projectionists and talent wranglers — who organize the next set of celebrity interviewees for each segment — are all watching the timer on their iPhones, using their own copies of LiveTime Viewer. So, for a cost of less than $100, we have a portable, custom timing and stage communication system. LiveTime provides synchronized technology that would otherwise cost thousands to rent or purchase. Thank you! Eric Allen, Director/Stage Manager of “The Contenders, presented by Deadline"

This app has been a great addition to our church’s production toolkit in keeping us on time. Before LiveTime we would VNC into an old windows machine running a countdown because there was nothing on the market with the same power and functionality that we needed for our services. LiveTime has been a great tool for our team and an amazing long needed replacement to our old system. No matter the application, anybody can benefit from this app much like we have. Whether it’s counting the time remining in a video or showing how long till our pastor needs to be on stage, LiveTime is the perfect application. I also love the fact that the server only needs to be purchased once and our other team members can purchase the Android app or the iOS app to view it were ever they are.
