What is Slides Timer?
Slides Timer is an innovative Chrome extension designed for adding timers to slide presentations. It allows you to insert a timer and pause or reset it as required. Available timer formats are extremely user-friendly, including count-ups, count-downs, current time without seconds/am/pm, numeric or word formats for date, etc. The extensions also support specific actions when a countdown is finished, such as moving to the next slide, triggering inserted audio or video. The Slides Timer extension does not handle user data, ensuring your presentations remain private and secure.

Not menu-driven (that's a good thing, imho) and works as described. Useful tool!

Works perfectly as described. Since you can customize the fonts, timers, up and down, backgrounds, auto set to move to next slide...I can't think of anything more useful in many ways.

Great feature. Works nicely. Thanks! Is it also possible to have a continuous count up for the whole presentation, not just for every individual slide?
