## Purpose

The Advanced Timer Widget offers an enhanced timing solution with a suite of powerful features designed for detailed time management and monitoring. In addition to the basic functionalities of pausing and resetting, this widget allows users to set a warning threshold that alerts them as they approach a critical time limit.

Users have the flexibility to customize the visual aspect of the timer by selecting a bar colour of their choice, providing a personalized and visually appealing interface.

## Setup

Installing the app will also include the custom widget for other apps.

## How It Works

The widget supports trigger inputs for two key events: reaching the predefined warning threshold and the completion of the timer. This makes the Advanced Timer Widget an ideal tool for managing time-sensitive tasks, providing both visual and programmable alerts to ensure critical moments are not missed. Whether for work instructions, process monitoring, or any scenario requiring precise time management, this widget offers an elevated level of control and customization to meet the needs of users.

## How to Extend

Using the advanced timer widget is a great opportunity to apply Tulip to more time-sensitive processes, especially in life sciences.
