The timer freezes on my watch after using it several times for 1 and 3 minute intervals. The rest of the watch apps are not frozen. The only way to fix it is a restart. This happens frequently enough to be troublesome.
Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 6
I had the same problem and was resetting each time it happened. Just now discovered that if I closed the timer app (by swiping left), and then asking Siri to set a new timer verbally, it snapped out of the frozen state. Still a bug, but at least it saves me from restarting each time.
I have noticed the exact same thing.
This works for me! Thanks
Thank you for the solution!!
Same issue for me...
Sooooooo helpful. Much faster than restarting and I can't use SIRI when in a gym and i have my headphones on blah blah...too much tech to figure out....hope we get the patch soon!
For the past 5 days, my timer is no longer freezing, after using the tip for about a week. Could the tip have fixed the freeze?
Hasn’t fixed it for me. My timer still freezes multiple times a day.
This is really ridiculous how long its taking to fix this. This has been going on for over a month. Come on Apple, get off your butt. I paid a lot of money for this hardware.
What button on the right? The resume button does nothing and there is no logoff screen when pressing the physical right button on the watch only Power off, Medical ID, Emergency SOS
Even when I did this and restarted the app, it was still frozen. The freeze occurred when I repeated a 3 minute timer with my students for an activity I was doing with them. Using Siri for the timer fixed the issue, but I hope Apple fixes this soon.
Apple Watch 4 - OS 6.1 - timer freezes
