Hey people, i'm making a voice note app and i need to display to the user how long he's been recording and how long he's been playing the voice note, does anyone have any idea on how i can display the timer?

I managed to display the timer, but now that i did, i'm gettin a RuntimeException when i try to record my voice note on the simulator.

The following code is my StopWatch class which measures the time and displays it on a labelfield on the screen, the error occurs in the run() method when DisplayTime is called

package Clases;
