    Hi,
    if I launch the countdown simultaneously on a mobile (Android) and a desktop, they start rightfully with the same countdown but the mobile countdown tends to go slower than the desktop version. It’s approx up to 2 secs per minutes …
    Is there a way to prevent this (some kind of force reload the “current time” every nth minutes ?).
    Thanks in advance, it’s a bit of a problem I just revealed going production …

    Can you share a link please?
    Also: Do the times synch up when the pages are reloaded?

    Thanks for the fast response
    Yes times synch up when reloading page. I suspect something like an interval not being calculated as fast (if ever it makes sense) or a problem due to animation … I did customize the Css a … lot.
    Would have to send you the link in private BC it’s not public yet can you (if allowed by forum rules) give me an email please ?

    Please check this countdown:
    https://spacedonkey.de/3017/t-countdown-time-synch-issue/

    We have reworked the method of calculating time offset during a running timer to keep things in sync like a boy band in the late 90’s.

    Hit us back with your feedback and we’ll post the update on github and push it to the repo next week.

    Well, that seems close to perfect !
    There is some offset on random seconds, but it’s “compensated” (is that all tenths seconds ?) later on …
    Great job ! [dancin, to be 3 style ?? ]

    Is that a large update or any chance I could get (the updated lines) before my site goes live *cough* *cough* tomorrow 6PM (Paris time) ?

    Anyway, thanks for your efficiency !!!
