iOS NSTimer and using REAL time

[jjardim]

I'm trying to use a UISlider to act as a Time limit. Problem is that the values go to .99 before flipping to 1.

My code so far is

int _min = (int)mySlider.value;
NSLog(@"Slider Int Minutes %i",_min);
	
NSString *str = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%.02f",mySlider.value];
int stringLength = [str length];
NSRange range = NSMakeRange(0, stringLength);
NSString *newStr = [str stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"." withString:@":" options:NSCaseInsensitiveSearch range:range];
	
NSLog(@"Old String: '%@' --> New String: '%@'", str, newStr);

So the slider works, but I would like once the decimal place hits .60 it increases by 1 and resets the decimals to .00

Screenshot Attached.

Thanks,

I'm gonna suggest you just set the max value of your slider to the amount of time you want in seconds and then just convert the current slider value from the float into minutes & seconds.

Found my solution

Just wanted to contribute back - here is what I did

int timerInt = (int)mySlider.value;
	
lblSliderValue.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%02d:%02d", timerInt / 60, timerInt % 60];

I converted the UISlider properties to Seconds in IB
