Frequently asked questions
Is asktimer.com really free?
Yes — start free, no card required. Create an event, add speakers and timers, and run live Q&A without paying anything up front.
How is this different from a standalone stage timer app?
Standalone stage timer apps are great at one thing: counting down. asktimer.com does that too, plus audience Q&A with upvoting built into the same event — no second tool, no separate login for your audience.
How is this different from a polling or engagement app?
Polling and engagement apps are built around slides and polls, not stage time. asktimer.com is built around the speaker's countdown first, with Q&A as a natural extension — one link for your audience, one control view for your host.
Do my speakers or audience need to install anything?
No. Speakers get a confidence-monitor link that opens in any browser. Your audience submits and upvotes questions from a link on their own phone — no app, no account.
