Hello. I am trying to add a timer so the customer and my team can see how much time is passing during a chat session. Preferably a countdown timer. Please let me know if that is possible with Adalo. - Thanks!

Okay, I’ll try but not sure it it will work well within the integration of another chat app system.  
Thanks tho!
