How to Add Timer in PowerPoint

Explain the role played by the timings set . Hints : Are the timings well set ? Did the audience have sufficient time to finish reading ? Were longer times allowed for longer text ? )

[@hardyho]

Hey Kevin, I still have Powerpoint 2010. It doens't have those add-ins. How can I get a timer without them?

[@ewynkoopinWi]

@@hardyho I think you'll need to create your own, like Kevin did in the first three options. Experiment with the animation features in your version of PowerPoint. I created a tall bar that counts down over one minute for trivia questions. The timer is on the far right of the slide with the question and multiple choice solutions to the left. It looks so cool and works great! Good luck with your timer.

[@birtanemaskm7864]

How we add music for the timer along it around I mean if it is one minute the music will stay for that minute.And when it finished another soumd inform that it's all done. I need it urgent please.

There's no way to thank you enough for your videos, and your dedication to teaching.

[@wjwu6269]

The information at 6:44 about customizing the animation duration was a game-changer--saving me countless hours of frustration. You're a lifesaver! Thanks so much.👋👋👋

[@rfmarves]

Genius!! I was already familiar with all the animations and have had the need for timers on slides, but this use of the animations had escaped me. Great ideas! Love it.

[@viktoriawithak2253]

Kevin one of the best easy to follow tutorials. I made something more intricate even and was so proud of myself. My husband is a rockstar with this stuff but I was impatient and he was asleep. I pulled up 5 how to vids before yours within seconds I abandoned each previous as one there was little or no explaining and too fast. I would love to demonstrate what I made but mostly thank you and will share your content when someone needs help and I will be going to your channel first when seeking how to stuff like this. Thanks again...

[@JettingChen]

Disclosing that you’re a Microsoft employee made me feel even better! More trust in professionalism, and knowing that this would be the best solution at the time of recording.

Hey Kevin, you helped me get my recent promotion at work! Thank you for making these videos!!! Keep me coming - especially the MS Lists using Power Automate!

[@ScottLRoyal]

Awesome tutorial. I'm doing a marathon on my rower in December and need to create timed reminders for Work, Rest, Hydrate and Nutrition. You just made this so easy. Especially with that animation painter. tysm.

[@chanchalghosh8550]

I love your educational videos. They are so carefully made with all details in mind and very informative indeed. I am sure Microsoft is missing on a talent like you 😊

[@funnytiff22]

Thanks Kevin! I love all of your videos. I’m kind of surprised that Microsoft doesn’t have an actual timer that can be inserted into a slide. Oh well! 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@jenna6256]

Thank you so much for making my video request. This will be so helpful for me when I create our monthly staff meeting slides. I'm so happy I found your channel.

Thanks for the video it really helped. I was looking for how to add a timer on Microsoft PowerPoint yesterday because I uploaded an IQ video which does with riddle yesterday and I wanted to add a timer to each of the riddles but I did not know how to add it. But know that you have made this video I will be able to add a timer to my next IQ video. Once again thanks for the video.

[@vmolina2002]

Very informative video on inserting timers into powerpoint! Thank you so much.

[@pinkleisa]

This is wonderful! I hate creating them from scratch using animations - I just don't have the patience. :) Thank you, Kevin, for the great content! Quick question: anyone else have a problem keeping the time at full screen size when moving to presentation mode? The time keeps defaulting to the original size when I present.

[@nadinecharles1274]

This was extremely valuable! I added it to a slide to keep my zoom participants on time when presenting. Fun way to do it!

[@stephenruggieri]

Thanks Kevin, thank you for great content ! So it's 2022 and as I was watching this I'm thinking what is the easiest way to recreat this, built into powerpoint? I downloaded a count timer for my mac, and with full screen holding image, I simply screen recorded the timer and the background together, and then just popped it into a slide as a video. Set the video for autoplay, and done !

Painter tip: you can double-click the painter icon to select multiple objects to apply formatting or animations to, instead of always having to click back to it each time. Can save some time if you need to do this many times!

Hi Kevin! Thanx for sharing intricate insights with your videos! I am interested in learning how to create and insert custom countdown animated videos that preceed scenarios! For example, showing top ten trends that are preceded by an introductory video showing 10 then the content, then 9 followed by the relevant content.

can you please make a video on an application which i can use for hourly tracking of my work(would be better if you could find one by Microsoft.) LOving your work. Thanks for coming into existence and making this world better.

[@Pythogoras570BC]

Hello Kevin, I am impressed by both your deep knowledge in PowerPoint and comprehensive presentation, clear speech, clear accent also for us the nonnative English speakers, colored pronunciation and so many other details that really put you somewhere at the top. However, please allow and old fashion programmer to introduce a thought that is both comment and suggestion coming out of a lot of programming and teaching experience. To be honest, I do know programming but I am also missing important details that popped up in modern programming during the period I was acting more as a manager than as a programmer and unfortunately the gap is not that easy to be filled. Coming to point, I have taken quite a lot of your ideas but I am missing the ability to include the clocks and timers in all slides automatically, rather than copying clocks and timers to every single slide. Instead, I would prefer to have them inserted in a master slide and to activate them form there. I did tried to insert in the master slide a shape presenting a clock or the countdown time for the whole presentation, but I failed to achieve changing iots value and display the real time. Every effort failed. It is obvious that I am missing something and thus I am wondering whether you could guide us in doing something similar. Thanks a lot in advance and I do understand that you have many projects to achieve rather than teaching and old fashion programmer. Be well, take care, thing wisely.

Hi! I am a teacher in Dallas, TX and I have been binge-watching your videos in order to become more digitally competent for distance learning. The first slide of this tutorial has a watch and the rectangle was the timer with a disappearing color. Is it possible to make the black fade in a way that the slide's background appears instead of white? Thank you in advance.

Question: With the first add-in timer, when I go to "play" my PPT the time doesn't count down. It does on my control screen but not on the part the audience is viewing. Any tips?

[@StephenTrooper]

PowerPoint timers + video-conferencing? Thanks for the advice about timers Kevin. Many of us are delivering presentations via video-conferencing - is there a way to ensure the timer continues whilst, say, admitting people to a video conference? I've created a countdown timer ("xyz will start in nn minutes"), but whenever I admit someone to the conference, the PowerPoint timer stops. Is there a way to prevent this? I am using Presenter view, using monitor 1 for notes plus conferencing controls, sharing the presentation from monitor 2. Thanks

[@monsterbooks1059]

I would like a video on all the panes. I want to know all of them, they seem so handy. Can I keep them there permanently?

[@HeidiKovalick]

Would be helpful to know how to format the add-in to appear as just the digital numbers counting down in front of the background picture/

[@Speakers154]

A typically long winded Microsoft solution. Maybe Microsoft should just add a countdown feature as standard.

[@asphyxiat3dbyu]

hej Kevin. Lets say I am presenting at a meeting, and every slide has its own timer. Is it possible for each timer to automatically start the countdown as I go forward with the presentation? Thanks!!

[@chriss2595]

Q: How do you get those 2 icons docked on the right for the animation and selection pane? Don't say Office365 subscription! I couldn't find it in PPT 2019. VERY well explained! Apparently we only can set the duration to a max. of 10 min. Luckily we can add time by dragging the time bar to thet right in the animation pane!

[@berndeckenfels]

Is it possible to run a timer over several slides? More specifically, 10 slides that will transition to at random time, in other words not connected to timer. The timer runs for 5 min.

Is it possible make visible the timer in several slides? Normally I have several presenters and each has different time...

Hello Kevin. I am pretty sure there are so many projects you have to work on, but I was wondering why MPP doesn't have a timer that would be easier to its background like the one you use on My Add-ins? If you guys work on this new feature teachers or other types of presenters would be sooooooo happy. It will be fantastic if it includes different songs when time's up. Thank you for your time.
