It’s great but one little flaw
So I love the app all around but I has one flaw the changing prep time setting doesn’t work, PF got an update for 4 mins of prep instead of 3 if this could be fixed that would be much appreciated. Or at least make it so I can adjust prep time
United StatesGreat app!
It’s a great app that works well for PF, however, there should be an update to mirror the NSDA changes. (3 minute summary speech and 3 minute prep)
United StatesGood job
Nice
United StatesWorks great but deadly bug with new update
The timer worked great before the new update, it broke the prep timer, now pressing the prep timer button just starts main timer.
United StatesExcellent timer for all Debate formats
This timer is well thought out. I used to use “Debate Mobile” but it stopped being updated by its developers. There are many nicer parts of this timer in comparison and I think the “deliberation” and “adjudication” sections are nice to help keep the judges accountable as well. One thing I wish it had that DM used is a way to set the prep time to a standard “8” “5” or “10” minutes depending on the tournament you’re at. I wish the prep timer also kept track of time remaining as well as time used since that’s what debaters usually care more about. It’d be nice if it showed, say for a tournament using 8 minute prep, both that 2m30s had been USED but also that 5m30s REMAINING. That’s the only thing I find myself missing from Debate Mobile. Otherwise it’s a great timer, and particularly if you judge multiple formats frequently like me!
United StatesGreat for judges and students.
This app was perfect for me as a first time judge. I was able to use a similar format to our school, I emailed the authors and they added the unique format my state high school association uses, Classic Debate.
United StatesSometimes it glitches
Sometimes the app glitches and the background is red instead of yellow/green and as a result it also won't play sounds so i have to do it manually. Other than that, great app. Really appreciate the Dutch parliamentary system. ☺️
