Time remaining no longer showing on watch face

Until recently, when I set the timer on my Apple Watch, then returned to the main watch face, the time remaining on the timer showed in one corner, as I had set it up.

Now all that shows is the time I set the timer to, such as 20 mins, rather than the remaining time, gradually reducing.

My watch software is up to date (perhaps this happened at the last update - done automatically, so I am not sure when that was?) I have updated the software on my iPhone XS, but really this is a stand alone Watch problem.

Any suggestions please?

Apple Watch Series 2, watchOS 6

Hello janne001,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with your Apple Watch.


This may depend on your settings, or the Watch Complication you are using.


Please start with verifying you are setting a timer as per this help article: Set a timer on Apple Watch - Apple Support


Also check this article about different faces and available complications: Apple Watch faces and their features - Apple Support


If you need more help, please let us know if this is occurring in all Watch faces, and what complications you are using. Thanks and have a wonderful day.
