Have a timer continue to next Activity
I have created a timer on my first activity and would like the timer to continue timing on the second activity. How do I go about doing this? Would I have to create a SharedPrefrence or create a new timer on the second activity. I just don't know how I would link the timer to the second activity.
Code Below
FirstActivity.java
package com.example.warrenedy.mainapp;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;

I think what you searching for are background services.
Have a look at this: Starting Background Services
So the background service will be used for the timer and continues if you go to other activities (you should be aware of stopping it when closing you application)
