@NoCodeAndy I’m following here the discussion [started here](https://community.glideapps.com/t/meet-the-new-glide-apps/59429/42) * * * Hi all, Stopwatch is not longer supported in Glide Apps. The main reason is that it wasn’t used much so far : > We don’t see a lot of projects using it, so we didn’t put it on our shortlist for conversion. **Why is that?** **Is it due to a lack of use cases ?** Apps that I use everyday have one : - Sport coaching apps use it to time bound exercices. - Games or Quizzes use it to measure the performance finishing a level. I could find more than [6k shots on Dribbble](https://dribbble.com/search/shots/popular/mobile?q=countdown) with timers. **I believe that the current Stopwatch is just not very practical :** - too large - too complexe I had to customise it a lot to make it fit in my todo app (screenshots below). I simply used it as a timer. What do you think? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/7/0/70a81bddc9f649e0cf7b2ea33a7f87c8dd44eb96.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/b/9/b92e7d318b4097b7d9d78de9cc7d6b03d61ffdff.jpeg) ---

I agree with @Xavier_Delplanque - Stopwatch (or even a simple countdown timer) is a must for quiz apps and training apps. My second most popular template is a quiz template and it would be too bad if that component was gone forever. Please consider bringing it back. Thank you! ⏱🙌 ---

A timer component makes a lot of sense. We’ll add it to the list. Merci Xavier! ---

Hi - I’m wondering if this feature has been added back? I’m not seeing it. I was hoping to add a countdown timer to our upcoming event. ---
