How to play

  1. Type each schedule block on its own line as a 24-hour start time followed by a title, like "09:00 Math Block", then tap Show Agenda.
  2. Watch the vertical timeline build with every block listed by start time, earliest first.
  3. The current block glows with a teal border and a NOW tag automatically, and updates on its own as the clock moves — no manual refresh needed.
  4. Tap Fullscreen for a large, room-readable view, or Edit Agenda to return to the text box and change the schedule.

Type today's schedule into the box as one line per block, each starting with a 24-hour time like 09:00 followed by the block's title, then tap Show Agenda to turn it into a vertical timeline. The block matching the current time glows with a teal outline and a NOW tag, blocks already finished for the day fade to show they've passed, and a line above the timeline states in plain language what's happening now and what's coming up next. The display re-checks the clock every fifteen seconds on its own, so the glowing block advances automatically as the school day moves forward without anyone touching the screen. Tap Fullscreen for a clean, large version readable from across the room, or Edit Agenda to go back and change the schedule for a different day.

Frequently asked questions

How does the display know which block is happening right now?
It compares the current time against every block's start time and highlights the last block whose start time has already passed, re-checking automatically every fifteen seconds so the glowing block always matches the real clock.
What happens to blocks that have already finished?
Any block earlier than the current one fades to a dimmed appearance in the timeline, making it visually clear at a glance which parts of the day are done versus what's still ahead.
Can I change the schedule without losing my place?
Tap Edit Agenda to return to the text box with your original schedule still there for editing, then tap Show Agenda again to rebuild the timeline with your changes.
