In row, repeat until length of – remove list and just put list viewer 1 get text items…

It works but why it takes about minute to execute the code?

EDITED: It works really fast but doesn’t start until i close keyboard. Can i close user keyboard with code?

EDITED: It works I just used Timer rather than button and it works. Thanks

Glad to hear it’s working for you now @Kacper_Paszter.

Just for the benefit of future readers, there’s a similar example in the #thunkable-cross-tutorials section, here:
