Hi Homey friends, A small question; I might see ghosts, but can it be that countdowntimers are disappearing from my countdownapp ? I need these timers all the way, and my flows are not working because they are disappearing… Thanks in advance ! Bart ---

I did, but I’m really starting to question the countdown timer app ---

And which app (yes, there are several) on which Homey version? ---

Hi @Rocodamelshekima, Thanks for your shift reply. I’m using Homey Version 2.1.2 and Countdown Timer (Jeroen Bos) Version 1.2.6 and Better Logic v 1.0.5 ---

Ok, thnx. Saves me from reacting with “i don’t see that behavior” and stuff like that because i use the Ralf app. Maybe we can ask Jeroen to shed a light on this. ---

We will look into it. Also use the app myself, no problem. Also never heard of the problem before. Do you use strange characters in timer names?? ---

Hi Bart, I had the same issue, restarting the countdown app fixed it for me ---

The app automagically removes unused timers on app restart. So its not a bug its a feature 😉 New test-version of the countdown app is live: [Countdown timers App voor Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/homey.countdown/Countdown-timers/test/) This adds pause / resume a timer and fixes a bug where the trigger a timer is empty card when the timer was stopped manually. Happy testing!
