Countdown Timer

Me again guys, as you can tell I am eyes down on creating some custom watch faces at the mo hence all the Qs! Does anyone have a solution to show not the countdown timer icon but the time that it is counting down from once set to run? Would this need a different timer/complication to the Samsung one? Trying to avoid having to find the tile or click the sand timer to see how long is left just want it to show on the face… it is probably my most used app for timing when cooking haha!

If it is possible please advise the required layout too so I can hide elements if needed :slight_smile:

Look in Play Store I have seen count down timers and stop watches, etc most free.

If it is an app you can use the app chooser and set it up that way, or start it with the App ID for a tap action

Hi @r.liechty_SDR that will create a shortcut. Not a timer that count down on the wfs watch face = complication.

If it doesn’t come with a complication ask the developer to create a complication :slight_smile:

@russellcresser he doesnt want a “shortcut” he want the values displayed on the watch face. Does your do that or just a hour glass or the word timer?

As replied as for now u cant. Timer and alarm are 2 different complications, as timer needs to be countinous update alarm only shows the next alarm. So i guess there where the limits is.
