Hi @Barna_Kovács

Set the OnTimerEnd to something like:

Navigate(Screen2);UpdateContext({locStartTimer:false});Reset(Timer1)

OnSelect to:

UpdateContext({locStartTimer:true});

and Start to:

locStartTimer

and when you click on the timer, the countdown will start and on end, will navigate to your new screen whilst resetting the start variable to false and resetting the timer for the next visit!

Please consider accepting my answer as a solution if it helps to solve your problem.

thanks for the reply!
the point is to automatically navigate to a non-click at a given time

Now() only returns a new value each time it's evaluated. In this case, I'd assume it's only evaluating once, on time start, so it'll never equal the time that you're comparing it to (unless you're lucky). Even so, it looks like it'll always navigate the user to the screen you indicate every time the time ends. Why are you using a timer? Is this a page you want people to see only at 20:00? If so, I'd suggest using the StartScreen property of your app rather than a timer.
