I have a WM23 app in which an internal window control uses TimerSys for a countdown timer. Works great, except for Android switches of the display. Then the countdown seems to stop.

Anyone know either:

1. What I might be doing wrong?
2. How to properly get the countdown timer to continue when the screen is switched off, or when the app is in the background.

Cheers
Paul.

Hi. In Android only the current window continues to work. If you need to do something in the background you should use a Thread Persistent to execute the code that should keep running in the background.
