Does reloading the TV reset the timer?

No. This exam clock counts to a fixed finish time saved in the link, so a reload, a new tab or a rebooted TV shows the same time left. Nothing runs on our servers.

Can several rooms run the same exam?

Yes. Open the same link in every room: every screen with the link reaches zero at the same moment. The Finish line on the screen shows the time where the link was made. If each room needs its own name on the screen, make a link per room.

Can I add reading time before the exam?

It is not a separate phase in this timer. Either open a second link that finishes when reading time ends and then the exam link, or open the exam link when reading is over.

OwnScreen

Exam timer

An exam timer for the projector or classroom TV: the current time, the finish time and the time left, big enough to read from the back row. The finish time is saved in the link, so every room with the link finishes together.

An exam clock for the whole room

At the front of the room everyone can see the clock, the finish time and the minutes left, so nobody has to ask how long there is. The time left is the biggest thing on the screen, and at zero it is replaced by your message, such as “Pens down”.

The finish time is a full date and time, saved in the link in UTC: a link made today still ends at the right moment if you open it another day, and every room with the same link finishes at the same moment. A reload, a new tab or a rebooted TV changes nothing, because the countdown always runs to that finish time.

Put it on a TV

Make it above. The preview is exactly what the screen shows.
Open it on the screen. Press Open fullscreen on that device, or send yourself the link. For a TV with an account, open ownscreen.com/tv and enter its code on your phone.
Leave it running. It fits any screen size and asks the screen to stay on.
