Hi, At me such it is not observed. Can you show the code for the blocks? Maybe the problem is with what happens in the code or values ​​in the component properties fields? ---

Hi Alex, I tried to use a delay to do the color gradient on my first try. The error seems to be the same [Thunkable](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/b728114f4318d7fef09197f7185367d9) (simple timer) If you can take a look, I’d be grateful. Thanks a lot, André ![Capture%20_2018-07-24-01-19-54](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/3/330c673f3166037fcfac68e8288cb39f4c7bd7b4.png) ![Capture%20_2018-07-24-01-19-39](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/d/c/dc5bf3fe43177d6e05ac16ecfc182791e4daf9d9.png) ---

Hi André, I know about such a bug on Android. I’m afraid we can not solve it without the help of developers. Alex ---

Crashes app calls the Timer1.setIntervalMilliseconds block. Remove this block [https://x.thunkable.com/projects/5b56c6ba887e84714be63529/project/properties/designer/](https://x.thunkable.com/projects/5b56c6ba887e84714be63529/project/properties/designer/) This app is running on your Android?

Alex, yes, it executes but it is impossible to define the range, even in design mode. How do I report this to developers (bugs section)? Thank you my app will run on Android And iOS ---

To create an error message that developers see, go to [https://github.com/thunkable/thunkable-issues/issues](https://github.com/thunkable/thunkable-issues/issues) and create a new message by clicking on the “New issue” button and selecting the “Bug report” message type. ---

My suggestion may seem terrible to you, but you can temporarily use this solution - add several Timer components to the project with a different delay set in advance. ---
