A BRB screen with a countdown that shows when you’re late

Frequently asked
What happens when the countdown hits zero?
You choose: the screen hides itself, or it stays up. On Creator it can keep counting instead. The clock turns red and counts up, so viewers can see you’re running late.
Does the countdown survive a refresh?
Yes. The screen counts to a fixed end time, so refreshing your panel or the overlay shows the same number.
Can viewers still see my game?
If you want them to. Full-frame covers everything, which suits a real break. A card sits in the middle and leaves the game visible around it, on every plan.
Which plan do I need?
The countdown is on every plan, and Free keeps two screens live with a Kloot badge. Keeping count past zero and the rotating trivia are Creator ($15/mo), which also removes the badge.
