wotc
The ability can be used any time Umezawa's Jitte's controller has priority — only the "target creature" choice has additional requirements. Choosing the "Equipped creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn" mode does nothing if the Jitte isn't equipped to a creature when the ability resolves.
wotc
If the "target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn" mode is chosen, the target creature must also be announced.
