Preparing a Timer

Timers can be created during an ongoing session as well as beforehand in the Shardings Dashboard. Our recommendation would be to set-up your Timers before initiating a session to keep things smooth.

Set a time , description and add music to your timers to play during the session all while previewing how it will appear to your participants.
