Presentation Timer for PowerPoint | Countdown Timer Add-in
UbiTimer is a powerful presentation timer for PowerPoint designed for presenters, teachers, and conference speakers. Add a countdown or count-up timer directly to your slides and keep presentations perfectly on time.
Works with PowerPoint 365 on Windows, Mac and PowerPoint Online.
Common Presentation Timer Lengths
Many presentations require strict timing. A clear PowerPoint presentation timer helps presenters stay on schedule and ensures fair timing for every speaker.
- 5 minute presentation timer – lightning talks or quick updates
- 10 minute presentation timer – standard student presentations
- 15 minute presentation timer – seminar or lecture presentations
- 20 minute presentation timer – conference talks
With UbiTimer, the timer appears directly inside your PowerPoint slides so both the presenter and audience can see the remaining time.
Why Use a Presentation Timer in PowerPoint?
A visible timer helps presenters, teachers and students manage time without needing a separate browser timer, phone stopwatch or external clock. UbiTimer places the countdown directly inside your PowerPoint slides, so everyone can see the time remaining.
⏱ Stay Within Time
Keep lessons, lectures, seminars and conference talks within clear time limits.
🎓 Fair Student Presentations
Give each student or group the same presentation time during assessments and speaking tasks.
