Hi Bubblers, Looking for a countdown where a user can select X minutes with the ability to pause, restart, stop and reset? Any ideas on building or using a plugin with all the related features? This plugin is great, but only starts and does not provide the other features. > **[Countdown Plugin for Bubble, by Copilot](https://bubble.io/plugin/countdown-1564346312331x151935294257758200)** > > Countdown Plugin page on Bubble, by Copilot. Add Countdown in one click to your app. Bubble lets you build web apps without any code. Gaby’s video builds a countdown, also, without the features.

Is this like what you need? Here is an example: > **[Bubble - Visual Programming](https://examples4forum.bubbleapps.io/version-test/final_countdown?debug_mode=true)** > > Build stuff without code and launch a startup without a tech-cofounder! Bubble is a visual programing language. Instead of typing code, use a visual editor to build applications.

Why yes, @williamtisdale that was something along the lines of what I was thinking. Also a way to visually see the the minutes and seconds together is helpful, example: 05:30. Is this a plugin of yours or would you have the link to it? Also, know any good ways to create the same pause, stop, reset features for a stopwatch counting up? Looking for both a countdown and stopwatch that looks something similar to this (which is only the countdown, but works great): [https://graphicalcountdownplayground.bubbleapps.io/](https://graphicalcountdownplayground.bubbleapps.io/) ---

@jasonturo - hello Jason, did you manage to find one like this? It’s exactly what I need too ---

Hi Paul, No I haven’t found anything that fits what I’m looking for. Going to probably build my own plugin later for this. Would you mind letting me know if you come across anything useful? Cheers ---

I found a few, but nothing really worked properly - or at least how I want it to. We’ve created a animated progress bar that times down from 12 seconds so is quite clunky due to the conditions it uses. If you require a longer time frame it should be a lot smoother. ---
