In Android, Chronometer is a class that implements a simple timer. Chronometer is a subclass of TextView. This class helps us to add a timer in our app. You can give Timer start time in the elapsedRealTime() timebase and it start counting from that. If we don’t give base time then it will use the time at which time we call start() method. By default a chronometer displays the current timer value in the form of MM:SS or H:MM:SS.
