en Unfortunately I have to uninstall the extension because it is interfering with the ability to use captions with my microphone and meeting the needs of needs of my hearing challenged students beats out having a timer. For those that are trying to get the $ to work, use it like this: : <<15:00-$@>> This timer worked with counting down, not starting until I used the d/e trigger keys and playing a sound at the end of the timer. Its a shame it conflicts with microphone use.

en Hi, I just added this, and I love it!! I would love to have a gentle audio alarm when the time remaining runs out. Also, I would like to be able to exclude seeing the seconds on Time Elapsed and Current Time of Day because seeing seconds tick by when I'm trying to work on something creates a great deal of anxiety that I don't usually otherwise feel. BTW, this is also extremely helpful because Alice Keeler's companion https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/slides_timer_addon/420799124011 is not permitted by my organization for some reason. Thank you so very much for making this extension in such a way that my employer does not block it! :D

en This could get really useful with a few tweaks: - the "e" button seems to reset the timer to its initial time rather than starting/resuming a paused timer. - the "d" button doesn't seem to have any effect (maybe as a result of the issue with the "e" button?). - the time and date features are very useful - it's great that you can have one or the other or both together.

en Great. But, I can't get the $ (slide in a paused state) or the d and e keys to work. I would REALLY like them to work! Any advice

en This is a marvelous extension. There is one element I would like to see that I haven't found on it yet, that's the day of the week. For example, it might look something like this <<day>> but it would display Monday in slide show.

en I would appreciate a timer per slide option as I want to chunk it down. Like 2 mins for slide 1. 3 mins for slide 2. This is way better for time management compared to a large chunk of time. With only one timer you still can misjudge and then have no time for the back end of your presentation.

en Would love if there was a way to add a chime when timer goes off. Can't seem to figure out the @. Otherwise it's great.

en I'm having trouble with the d key pausing the timer. The e key works as a reset tool. Also, I'd rather NOT have the timer start as soon as the slide appears. I'd like to be able to start the timer when I want. Thanks.
