dont use j create a new app variable and have you enabled timer
Create a variable and set it to the value you want, for example 5
Set the timer interval to your desired period to check the time.
In the [Fires] even subtract 1 from the variable and then check if it is ZERO. When your variable reaches zero display your message.
That’s it.
