Normal State of Timer

When I enter 1 Minute

When I Entered 3 Minutes

Progress Bar is not Counting Down

Answer 1

In your main.xml, for ProgressBar you mentioned max value as 60. So the progress bar takes it max value as 60 and your progress bar starts decreasing from 60 seconds onwards.

Instead of that to work your Progress bar properly all times, in your "setTimer()" method write the below line.

mProgressBar.setMax(60*time);
