Continue app when switching

Hi there, my app runs a timer which stops when the user moves quickly to another app eg. to change the music and comes back to the timer.

Any solution that my timer app will continue? Thanks!

Has the timer mode changed when you come back to the app, or do you mean the Timer Action event doesn’t fire in the background?

Hi Tim,

I am using a timer to control a clock counting down from a set time. It just stops counting…

The Timer Action doesn’t fire int the background…

hey, you can use timer for that or you can use The new “Continue on PC” function.

Thanks all, I am using SecondsFrom1970 as a controller for time, works very well.
