Not resetting the timer when page is refreshed/ reloaded

Tikka_02 · 2020-06-25T11:09:49.334Z

Hi Guys,

Is there a way to set up my timer/countdown to continue counting down to 0 even when I refresh the page? Because what I am experiencing now is that when I refresh the page, the timer restarts.

What I am trying to achieve is to show a simple pop-up once the countdown reaches 0. The idea is the timer should be running in the background no matter what. So just in-case even if I refresh the page, the timer doesn’t restart.

Does anyone have suggestions that could help me here?

One option is to create a new data type that has 2 fields: Current User and Timer Start date/time. Then your timer can be based on the relevant record and won’t be reset when the page refreshes.

Thank you for your reply. @SerPounce
I understand what you mean. But how can I show how much time is left on the timer?
.

Will that be possible?
