Dim time1 As Long =DateTime.Now
    Dim time2 As Long =DateTime.now + 1230000  'put the second button click time here
    Dim p As Period
    p=DateUtils.PeriodBetweenInDays(time1,time2)
    Log($"$2.0{p.Minutes} mn $2.0{p.Seconds} sec  "$) 'displays 20 mn 30 sec

You need something like this:

B4X:

Dim time1 As Long =DateTime.Now
    Dim time2 As Long =DateTime.now + 1230000  'put the second button click time here
    Dim p As Period
    p=DateUtils.PeriodBetweenInDays(time1,time2)
    Log($"$2.0{p.Minutes} mn $2.0{p.Seconds} sec  "$) 'displays 20 mn 30 sec

Sub lblstart_Click

If lblstart.Text.Contains("Start") Then

        Dim time1 As Long =DateTime.Now

lblstart.Text="Stop Recording"
lblstart.Color=Colors.Red
    Else
        Dim time2 As Long =DateTime.now
        Dim pl As Period
        pl=DateUtils.PeriodBetweenInDays(time1,time2)
        Log($"$2.0{pl.Minutes} mn $2.0{pl.Seconds} sec  "$) 'displays 20 mn 30 sec

    
        lblstart.Text="Start Recording"
        lblstart.Color=Colors.Rgb(58,197,0)
    End If


End Sub

    stoptime = DateTime.Now
    Dim pl As Period
    pl=DateUtils.PeriodBetweenInDays(starttime,stoptime)
    lblResult.Text = pl
    Log(pl)
End Sub

B4X:

[Days=0, Hours=0, IsInitialized=true
, Minutes=0, Months=0, Seconds=7
, Years=0]

Dim time1 As Long =DateTime.Now needs to be outside the If loop.

B4X:

Sub lblstart_Click
Dim time1 As Long =DateTime.Now
