I wasn't able to reproduce this. Can you be more specific? Is the timer not working at all?

I'll show you. Basically, the timer functionality breaks when changing chapters:

When I kill the app, the timer works until a chapter is changed again:

And it's not just a display issue. The book doesn't stop when the timer is broken after changing chapters.

Hope that helps.
And big thanks for your work by the way 😊

Thanks I was able to reproduce the issue. I also found an issue when using the "End of Chapter" timer and changing chapters.

There is also an issue with "end of chapter" when the playback speed is different then 1x the remaining time will still be set to the normal remaining time of the chapter ignoring the playback factor

I believe this issue is fixed now in v0.9.80-beta. I'm not able to reproduce it anymore but let me know.
This is iOS specific.
