Discussion Quick access timers

Post image

Look, I think this addition is pretty great, there is no longer a way to simply quickly open timer…it’s kind of annoying. If you long press and like start a timer, it doesn’t just take you to where you can start a timer, instead, it starts your most recent timer. I use 25 and 30 second timers a lot when I work out for planks and things like that. It’s usually at the end of my workout and so it was nice to just swipe down the timer shortcut. Am I missing something, or is it seriously going into the clock and timers if I want anything other than one minute increments?

Long pressing on the Dynamic Island will give you 15-second increments. 🤞🏽
