How to write countdown Timer in UWP?

Question

May I ask about how to write a countdown timer (Hours, Minutes,Seconds) in UWP ? I saw a lot of example in stack overflow but it only for Windows Forms. Thank You.

There are plenty of samples: [one](http://stackoverflow.com/q/13772955/2681948), [two](http://stackoverflow.com/q/34271100/2681948) and more. Have you tried? — Romasz, Feb 19 '17 at 09:11

Assuming you want to execute a task when the application is on the foreground you can use DispatcherTimer Class to do this. You can have a look at the examples and know more about them.

Hope this Helps..!

Write it in code. – lindexi Feb 19 '17 at 07:00
DispatcherTimer would be good, but it is not really accurate compared to for example System.Threading.Timer – Marian Dolinský Feb 19 '17 at 19:00
