Apple Watch - Delete Recents from Timer

With Apple Watch OS 8, the Recents are now stacked above the presets. This is quite annoying as I use the presets almost exclusively. Is there any way to disable seeing the Recents?

Hi CatMom-InCharge, We appreciate you reaching out to us. We understand that you are looking to disable the Recents feature of Timers because it is stacked above the preset that you almost exclusively use.


There is no option within the Timers app that allows the user to delete Recents or disable Recents.

While this is not a resolution that we recommend, it is possible to delete your Recents by deleting the Timers app, then reinstall it though the App Store on your Apple Watch.
