Hey William Nälsén,
Thank for the comment:
In accordance with the concept of the application, all timers are created inside the application. Control of timers can be either internal or external. Therefore, you can control timers, but not to create.
Please could you share your experience with the use of the URL schemes, so that we can have a clearer pattern of how your request can work after it can be implemented?
Do you have a feature where you can select which time the timer will have for the countdown and then start it? Would be a great command for me to use!
