Thunkable X time (countdown)

I need help creating a countdown timer. I want it to count down from 90 seconds . I know how to make it count up… I’m stuck and could use a little help please : )

Do basically the reverse of counting up. Instead of adding 1 to your label every second, start your label at 90 and reduce it by 1 until it hits 0. Then stop the clock.

do you use the timer component?

I know you can use a variable and change the variable by 1 and repeat the function from 1 to x amount of times. but this doesn’t seem like a good option and is susceptible to glitches I would think. Wouldn’t the timer component be more efficient… but I’m not sure how to make that count down… can it ?
