App Inventor delay implementation question (How do I use a delay?)

You use a clock timer, and place the actions you want to happen after the set interval in the clock timer event.

You might try this:


blocks (31)
Just replace do_something with the actions you want.

Remove procedure from Screen1.Initialise (or change the name of the second instance of the procedure)

Set interval before starting the clock timer
