"A timer is already running" when I try to start one
One clock at a time. Find the running one and stop it.
Troubleshooting · 1 min read
Stria allows one running timer per person, so that logged hours can never double-count the same minutes. Starting a second one is refused rather than silently splitting your time.
- Look at the bar under the header — it names what the running clock is on.
- Stop it there, reviewing the idle minutes and the billable tick as you do.
- Start the new timer.
Note: If you started the timer in another browser or on your phone, it is the same timer. Stopping it anywhere stops it everywhere.
