Pause

Please read the Material Usage Rules on this site.

This action lets you stop running the project for a set amount of time in seconds.

Used for:

  • Waiting until the app fully loads
  • Making things look more human with random pauses
  • Setting pauses between different actions

How do I add it to my project?​

Through the context menu: Add action → Logic → Pause.

How do I add it to my project?

How does this action work?​

The value is set in seconds.

If you use variables, the value must be numeric.

Exact pause.​

The project will stop for the exact number of seconds you set. You can enter a number or use a variable.

Exact pause

Interval pause.​

You set a pause within a certain range of seconds, you can use variables too.

Interval pause

  • FROM. Minimum time in seconds.
  • TO. Maximum pause in seconds (NOT INCLUDED).

For example, with the settings in the screenshot, the project will wait for a randomly chosen time between 20 and 59 seconds.

Example.​

Say you need to do a few similar things in your app. So it doesn't look robotic because everything runs instantly, we suggest adding random pauses between actions.

It can look like this:

  1. Open the app.
  2. Do what you need to do.
  3. Set a pause within an interval.
  4. Do the next actions.

Adding pauses like this makes the site think there's a real user, not a bot.
