Timer on Slides

What is the status of the timer slide? I'm referring to the feature of starting a timer for i.e. a five minute break during the presentation. Last update on this slide-type was in 2020, one and a half years ago, by Tiago Almeida. Any new development on this?

Additionally under the timer/countdown feature on the voting, is there anyway to make that customizable? The current default is 10, 30 or 1 min. Is there anyway to enrich the feature to make it customizable with a selection wheel or other user way? I have to use an external timer because I need to give my students 3 min. and sometimes longer.

George Wilcox: When you're presenting you can press "3" on your keyboard to set the timer for 3 minutes. Likewise, if you press 3 two times, you get a timer for 6 minutes! Cancel the timer with 0. Try some numbers out and see if we have what you're looking for.
Hope this helps!

Pecha Kucha is a great idea. 20x20 slides

This would be useful, it would enable me to use Mentimeter for PechaKucha story telling, something I can't do properly at the moment. An auto next slide function would be needed.
i.e. every 20 seconds, i would like mentimeter to go onto the next slide. Tiago Almeida

I use the Mentimeter for teaching and it would be really helpful if I could set a timer for a break during class. In this way the students know when their break ends.

This slide type is under investigation.

Tiago Almeida: Well it's 2023, so what's the status of this feature request? I would really like to use this presentation format, but can't without this feature. Please advise.
