Timeglider Acquisition FAQs

In June 2019 Preceden acquired Timeglider, a popular web-based timeline maker.

How does the acquisition impact Timeglider?

If you're an existing Timeglider user, you can continue signing into Timeglider and using it until we close Timeglider at the end of November 2020.

Timeglider will no longer be accepting new sign ups. To create a timeline we recommend checking out Preceden which provides similar functionality as Timeglider.
