Hello, we are building an event app, and when a client books an event, he can see in the countdown how many days and hours are missing, the problem is the following:

The counter every time I enter it starts again, it only starts when I enter, I need it to activate and every time I enter it is updated and not to start again

Which countdown timer are you using? Is it a component from NoCode Monkey? If so, @Michael may be able to help.

And If I’m correct countdowns are starting when you enter the screen. And you can watch this video made by @Victor. He has a great Solution for this 👍
