Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run a timer in a matter and in my Time & Expenses screen?
Only one timer can be active at a time. If you start a new timer, any previously active timer will automatically pause.

Additionally, all timers across different screens are synchronised, so you can easily switch between screens and still see all of your active timers, regardless of which screen they were started on.
Will my timer continue to run in the background when I close triConvey?
If you try to close triConvey while a timer is running, a prompt will ask if you want to pause it.
Will I lose my paused timers if I don't convert them to a time entry before I close triConvey?
No. When you re-open triConvey and click on the timer, you will be able to see the previously paused timers.
Do my paused timers remain visible indefinitely, or do they delete after a period of time?
All timers remain in place until you either delete them or complete them.
Is there a limit to how many timers I can have showing on the timer menu?
No, there is no limit.
