Is an animated countdown with numbers possible?

Ok, so I’ve come to the same conclusion @NigelG did in another post:

Auction Date Countdown.

The best solution is using an HTML element set to iframe with a javascript timer inside. Any internal Bubble solution would require data to be changed every second, which creates far too many workflow calls.

I used this easy little java widget here:

The final message is set to “Time’s up! This is your last question.” The next time the user clicks an answer, I’ve set a workflow condition to check if the difference between the User End Time and Current Date/Time is less than zero, triggering a popup that ends the quiz when exited, as opposed to a new question being displayed.

That’s my solution, hope it helps!
