Der, die or das?

die Laufzeit

feminine noun · duration · level B1

The plural

die Laufzeiten - in the plural, every German noun takes the article die.

Why die?

"Laufzeit" doesn't follow any of the 35 gender rules - it belongs to the words you learn together with their article, as one unit: die Laufzeit. That's exactly what the app's spaced repetition is for.
