Display Issues

Common Display Problems

Check that the display is set to "Extend" mode in Windows Settings. Go to Timer Pro Settings > Display and select the correct monitor. Try clicking "Detect Displays" to refresh the list.
Adjust the font size in Settings > Appearance. For best results, use the "Auto-fit" option which automatically scales the text to fill the display.
Projectors may display colors differently. Test your color settings before the event and adjust the contrast and brightness in Timer Pro appearance settings.

Network Problems

Common Network Issues

Ensure all devices are on the same network. Check Windows Firewall settings - Timer Pro may need permission for network access. Try disabling VPN if enabled.
Check your network connection quality. Reduce the number of connected devices. Ensure you are using a stable WiFi connection or ethernet.
Ensure your mobile device is connected to the same WiFi network as the computer running Timer Pro. Try entering the URL manually if the QR code scan fails.

Activation Problems
