Hi,

I use your app and it's very helpful. However, if there is any overlay popup, the timer stops and only resumes after the popup is removed. I am on android 11. anything that you can do about it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Ashay,

Thx for reaching out. Glad you’re enjoying GoenkaTimer.

I’m not exactly sure what to do about this overlay pop up problem. I only have iOS, so I can’t really test android fully, so that’s one barrier.

I’ve made a note of it in our internal bug tracker. I have another developer friend who has Android, he may have more luck.

What kind of popups are common? Like low battery warnings? Messages from other apps?

The only thing I can suggest right now, pending a better fix on our end, is to consider enabling airplane mode to block incoming calls/msg’s while you’re sitting. There is a feature on the settings page to remind you to turn on airplane mode at the start of sits, if that’s helpful.

Sorry I don’t have a better answer for this right now… will keep noodling on it.

Lots of mettā,

🧘‍♂️ David

Thankyou for your response.

Will it be possible to make the code open source? I would like to modify it for personal use with your permission.
