We need a longer timer that runs in background

[riztotheo]

Hello,

I have a Fitbit Ionic and I'm desperately in search of a countdown timer app that lasts more than 99 minutes and will still run even after minimizing the app. Of every timer app offered, only 3 countdown longer than 99 minutes, but none of them will run in the background or will ring if you exit the app. It's not practical to be forced to keep a timer app open for 2 hours just to have a countdown longer than 99 minutes. Is there anything anyone can do to help?

@riztotheo A warm welcome to the Community. Sorry for the delayed reply. 

Thanks for sharing your experience with countdown timer.

At the moment, the only way to have the countdown timer would be using the one that comes already with your watch, because it will run in the background. However, if you would like that this could be longer than 99 minutes, you may want to post your idea in our Feature Suggestion board, those ideas are reviewed by our team and the status changes based in Fitbit's plans. 

I'll be around if you need further assistance.
