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

    Cooking, chores (laundry especially), task management at work, reminding me to get up and move, workouts, etc. I use it more than anything else

    Making my coffee immersion style using a Hario Switch daily. Usually 1-3 other times a day when I need a one off alarm that nags more than a reminder or calendar alert.

    I’m a teacher so I use it all the time for timing things that I want the children to do like writing, reading, taking down homework or group work! So handy!!

    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.

    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 used to use it a lot for cooking, but since Apple added the Dynamic Island on the iPhone which puts the timer visible without having to leave most apps, I’ve started using my iPhone for that more.

    I do still use my Watch timer for naps at work, though. The vibrating alert is perfect without bothering others.

    When I had my apple watch i frequently ran into the issue where I needed multiple timers but i mostly used it for cooking.

    So id set a timer on my phone and a set time alarm on my watch
