Hi Anyone here managed to make a live countdown timer, with days, minutes and seconds?

I currently already have a countdown timer, but its not live there is a 10 sec delay that happens as the math column update. I have it setup to show ‘days’ remaining when above 24hrs, ‘hours’ when below 24hrs, ‘minutes’ when below 60 mins.

But these are not 100% live. Also as a workaround trick, once the timer reaches below 1 min, i show a 60sec timer GIF file, which disappears when my timer hits zero. Not really 100% but works ok.

You’re right…there’s a 10second delay to update live seconds. All timers I make have seconds as the smallest fraction of time consequently.
