Stage clock

Full-screen side-stage clock with a countdown to the next moment of the night

Stage clock turns a phone into a big side-stage clock, for the crew or for the artist to glance at between songs.

WHERE IT LIVES:

Stage Clock in the left menu (right under Today) opens today's clock in one tap; on a phone it's the first item under More. On the Day page, tap any countdown chip (the "SOUNDCHECK 36M" pill by the schedule title), or use Stage clock at the top right of the Schedule tab or the Day page's ⋯ menu. Anyone on the tour can open it, not just the TM. Its icon is two flip-clock tiles, one pink.

WHAT IT SHOWS:

MOUNTING IT:

The screen stays awake while it's open. Turn the phone sideways for the biggest numbers. Tap anywhere to show Style, Pop out (on a computer), Full screen and Exit; they fade after a few seconds.

MAKE IT YOURS:

Tap Style: Classic (big solid digits) or Flip (split-flap cards that flip as the time changes), five ATOM colors (teal, blue, pink, purple, white), and switches for Seconds and Countdown. Your choice is remembered on that phone.

COUNT DOWN TO: in Style, with Countdown on, pick Key moments (load-in, soundcheck, doors, the set, load-out, bus call) or Every line: whatever is next on the schedule and the time until it, in the same one line under the time ("CHANGEOVER IN 31:06"). TBD lines never count. Dimmed lines are skipped unless you turn on Include dimmed lines (shown under Every line). The choice is saved on that phone. Opened from a show's Day page, the clock keeps counting after midnight to the late load-out and bus call.

POP OUT (on a computer): tap Pop out on the clock to put it in its own small window and go back to where you were in ATOM. In Chrome or Edge it floats on top of every app: drag it anywhere, resize it, and keep working; it follows the schedule as it changes and closes with its Close button or when ATOM's tab closes. In Safari or Firefox it opens in its own browser window you can drag to a second screen (those browsers can't keep it on top). Pop out isn't in the phone app or the ATOM Mac app, which can't open a second window.
