Working with the board timer
While collaborating on a board, you'll often want a clear time limit for certain activities, such as brainstorming or voting.
To launch a timer, open the All tools menu (➕ sign) from the toolbar. You can also bring up the All tools menu with the shortcut /.
After the timer appears, you can decide how long it should run. Pick one of the 5 presets, or set a custom time of up to 99 minutes and 59 seconds.
As soon as the timer begins, it settles into the top-right corner of your screen. From there, you're able to:
- Pause or resume the timer
- Stop the timer completely
- Add extra minutes to the timer
- Collapse the timer down to a smaller size
- Mute the timer so you won't hear the audible chime when the time runs out
- Restart the timer after the time runs out
When you're finished with the timer for good, stop it first and then select the X icon.
Note:
- The timer feature is not included with the Free plan.
- Anyone with editor access can adjust, pause, or reset the timer.
- Everyone currently viewing the board will be able to see the timer.
- The timer's size and your mute preferences belong to you alone and won't change anything for other people looking at the board.
- Whenever you mute or collapse a timer, we'll hold on to those choices so they're ready the next time you start one.
