I’m curious if there are more people like myself who frequently use the native timer on their apple watch.

    I’ll put 1 soda in the freezer per day for an hour (I don’t keep the fridge stocked of soda otherwise I will drink way too many). I use the timer every day to remind me to take it out so I don’t have a giant mess to clean up lol

    I have two.

    I’m bariatric so I can’t drink 30 minutes after I eat. So I have one for that.

    Then I have a water goal I have to meet. I have a 5 minute timer to remind me to drink water.

    Golf referee here… I use the timer(s) to time ball searches, and the stop watch to time players when they are ‘on the clock’ for playing slowly.

      Please expand. Doyou use the countdown time to time ball searches?

      Also, if you could set the countdown timer to the time allowed for play that would immediately alert you when the player has gone over time. Is this how you use it or do you use a stopwatch for this?

    I work in a lab and sometimes have to do timed experiments or incubations. Incredibly helpful as it doesn’t disturb anyone but me

    I set a timer on my phone but let it ring through to my watch. The interface for setting a watch timer suuuuucks

    Every day. Cooking, laundry, and the sanitizer for my baby’s bottles.

    Being able to glance down and see how much time I have until one of those things is finished is great.

    Everything! But I mostly set timers on my phone since you can use multiple timers at once, and label them.

    All the time! Plus the reminders app on it. Nice to be able to tell Siri to remind me of something and the watch vibrates and reminds me.

    I use it when cooking - mainly when I use the grill. Always giggle when I tell Siri to label the timer “Flip brats” and it gets set as “Flip brotz”
