Timer/countdown

I am looking to create a timer/countdown.

I am a beginner to Glide, and I am hoping I can find a way to make it happen. I’ve seen some mixed information regarding whether or not it is possible to do, and if it is possible to display the seconds as the seconds pass. I am looking to start the countdown to any amount below 24 hours, and to countdown from there, and to have a timer that starts at zero, and has the ability to go till 24 hours as a max. Can the glide-smart people out there give me some information and background on this matter?

Thank you for your response! I will sit down to look it over.

Here’s a link directly to the component itself.

I started looking it over and I have a few questions. To start with you seem to have three stopwatches. What are the difference between the three, and what is the one that is listed as native stopwatch? I thought such a second to second stopwatch is not native to Glide. If it is native to Glide, I would be interested to know how I can access it, and I’m thinking that if I am looking to use the cleanest solution, the something native would be best.

Also, the AI stopwatch, what aspect of it is AI, and why is it needed?

Thank you!!

If you are asking about the app in the post of mine that Darren shared..the first tab demonstrates something I created using the Custom AI component. It allows for counting up and counting down along with some additional customization. I shared a link earlier in this thread to copy the component directly and paste it into your project.

The second tab is something I created for myself to track projects. It’s a highly specific use case, so it can mostly be ignored.

The third tab is in fact a native timer but only counts up and in my opinion is a little buggy. It’s still in beta so you need to enable the preview feature.
