4. Usage
How to set timezone
It is very easy to set the timezone for a particular place.
You can set the timezon from property and through blocks as I have mentioned above. If you dont
know your timeserver then I have mentioned the API above you can use it. Also you can fetch the
timezones and use it in this way
How to set current time type
You can use offline time for countdown but it is hackable so we can use both types of time in countdown. Like when device automatic time is enabled then we will use offline time and when it is disabled then we will use online time from API in countdown. Look blocks
How to use the Countdown
People has a lot of confusion from where I have changed the return type of this block. So it is very easy to use. It return a List of four items that contains days,hours,minutes,seconds. You have to select them from that list and use it according to your needs. Like I have used it to text in a label first with some modification
