FAQ

Seven questions about getting started, devices, and usage

How do I get and install the timer?

Contact us for the installation package — sideload it onto an Android tablet or TV box and it works right away, no account needed. A QR-code entry point will also be available once ready.

What devices are supported?

Any device running Android 7.0 or later. A universal package covers four ABIs (arm64, armv7, x86_64, x86), so both Android tablets and Android TV devices work; landscape large screens give the best experience.

What does "fully offline" mean?

The app requests no network permission and contains no networking code — everything runs locally after installation. The voice engine is bundled inside the app, so basements and shielded venues work as usual.

Can the voice announcements be customized?

Yes. The time-remaining warning and session-end announcements are templates with placeholders such as "{name}, session {N}, {warning point} minutes remaining". The voice is a bundled offline Chinese female voice and does not rely on the device text-to-speech service.

How are sessions configured?

Set any number of sessions with individually adjustable durations, or apply one batch duration to all. Each session can carry a description of up to 30 characters shown under the countdown. Built-in templates such as the tavern competition and basketball game apply with one tap for further tweaking.

Can it be customized to our workflow?

Shuqi develops and delivers in-house, supporting custom development against your workflow — the timing model, announcement rules, and interface can all be evaluated against your requirements.
