Easy Countdown Timer
· v1.0.2
About
Easy Countdown Timer is designed to be easy to use with multiple options to set the countdown time. It has a repeat function to help pace your workouts with a settable rest time in between to permit recovery or set up of the next activity. Your heart rate and time of day are also displayed. The countdown can be paused at any time. Preset defaults can be entered via the Connect app.
There are four ways of setting the timer:
When the count is at zero pushing the start button or the reset icon will set the countdown time to the preset default. The preset default is initially set via the Connect app and is nominally 30 seconds. Setting the countdown time will reset the default until the next time the app is started when the preset default will be used.
The up and down arrows can be tapped to increment or decrement the seconds or minutes.
Holding your finger on the arrows will fast forward the count.
Swiping up or down on the minutes' side of the display will increment or decrement the minutes. A small swipe will increment or decrement the count by 10 and a large swipe by 20. The same is true for swiping on the seconds’ side. Not all products have this feature.
Starting or pausing:
Once the countdown time is set, pushing the start button will begin the countdown. Pushing it again will pause the countdown. On the Vivoactive 4, the start button is on the upper right.
Resetting:
During a pause or upon countdown completion, the timer can be reset by tapping the reset icon.
Menu Settings:
In the Vivoactive 4, the menu is accessed by a long hold of the lower right button. Exiting the menu is achieved by a short press of the menu button.
The heart rate display can be toggled on or off. The preset default is on but can be changed via the Connect app.
The repeat action can be toggled on or off. The preset default is off but can be changed via the Connect app.
The rest time between repeats can be changed. The preset default is 20 seconds but can be changed via the Connect app
The number of repeat times can be changed. The preset default is 2 repeat times but can be changed via Connect app.
Exit:
The back button will exit the app only when the counting is paused or has completed. The activity can be saved or discarded where each countdown cycle is saved as a lap. In the Connect app the option to save can be disabled.
Note: When the timer is paused or stopped, to save battery power, the heart rate will only update once a minute, on the minute.
