Plugin Request Timer

Hi everyone! I am looking for a plugin that will allow me to create a set of timers with custom sounds. As I am new, I am not sure how to go about doing this. Thank you for your assistance.

It is possible with BT but this would be a lot of custom coding and on a new plug-in screen. If you're developing for iOS- Here's a sample project for a single timer i have been tinkering with that you can look at. This should give you an idea of what is involved. http://www.apptite.be/blog/ios/sample-ios-application-stopwatch/

You nailed that one. I am developing for iOS. Basics are good here but what I really need is the ability to do several things. I need to make more of an alarm clock type thing, like the internal alarm clock in iOS but confined to the app, with the capabilities to access a web database to pull times for events and set your own timers. I am new and have not gotten any coding lessons so I need to know how to set that up.

Without any coding knowledge/experience that is going to be tough. Even a seasoned coder would need some time to develop that. It's complex but it IS totally possible with BT. Because you get the source code with BT unlike most other app building services. So you can make ANYTHING with BT. I'd suggest starting with something much smaller and basic to get started understanding BT. Tying to jump in there and create that as your first app without any coding experience - that's gonna be a tough task. Its all gonna be in the NSTimer Class Reference. That's what you will end up eventually studying and making into a custom plug-in to create that timer. Most likely using a BT 1.5 Custom Plug-in screen. may I also add that Koka Booth Amphitheatre is a mystical place to see concerts. incredible sound and atmosphere.
