Remove timer
I played a game the other day and it wasn't timed. The next day I came online and the games were timed. The allowable time was way too short to be fun. How do I control or eliminate the timer?

Thank you for supporting me in my decision: I canceled just my subscription.
Last week no timer was present, this week, 2 minutes for each run in explorer !!!
Hi guys!

You are able to change the round time by going to "Default settings" and clicking the switch:
Great, but Geogssr shoud had communicate this !
Why on earth would they make "panic mode" the DEFAULT setting? This just seems very wrong-headed to me.
It seems apparent, from many of the comments, that I am not alone in getting my enjoyment from GeoGuessr in exploring each new location, finding both unique features and similarities in widely differing locales, learning something of the flora and architecture, and challenging myself to find the exact spot on Google earth or maps.
The Quick-play mode have a built in timer but on regular Maps it can be turned off before starting it - https://www.geoguessr.com/maps



The point of quick play was that it was just 1 location, but you could take your time.
There is no option to change the timer, when you press play it starts without a chance to change any settings.
