Help Needed with Formatting Seconds in Bubble

[cohereandnow]

I’m trying to format a seconds value in Bubble to ensure it always displays with leading zeros for single-digit seconds (e.g., “05” instead of “5”). I’m running into issues with the formatted as text option not appearing for my calculations.

Can anyone suggest a solution to pad numbers with leading zeros or help with any workarounds? Thanks in advance.

Hello, you are trying to find Boolean Formatting. If you add < 10 at the end of the dynamic expression the whole expression will return true or false. Now you can find and add :formatted as text.

Happy developing

Thank you. I did that but it’s showing incomplete. What else do I need to add?

What is the error message?

Looks like there is two.

So you need to convert it to number. You can see that function in the list.

Makes sense. Last things lol how do I get it to display on the first two numbers?

10:42 instead of 10:42356

I treid rounded to 0 but that didn’t do it.

You should use :formatted as

Well this is just for the seconds. So I want the decimal place to be 0 and it to be “42” instead of “42356”.

I tried this but I got something even longer…

Never mind. I was making that way harder than it needed to be. lol

I was about to prepare a simple demo, but happily, you found the solution
