The timer being in that status bar is extremely annoying. It is too easy to touch it and enter the timer screen, pause it, etc. I just want it gone but cannot find a setting for this. Surely Apple gives us a way to turn this off...
iPhone 7, iOS 15
Long press the timer in the status bar, you will get a pop up. After the pop up click the close button. This should resolve the issue without a restart or any additional actions.

Touch the status bar, it will show popup and press close button.
It is really annoying the on’y way i found it is power off iPhone and restart it will be disappear.
But doing that turns the timer off. I don’t want to turn off the timer, I just want it removed from the status bar. It really looks like there is no way to remove the timer from the status bar without cancelling the timer. Unbelievable.
D’oh! Thread doesn’t show that I’ve got an iphone14. Here’s a screenshot. If I touch anywhere near that black oval, it takes me to the timer. I can make it go away by swiping horizontally, but really just want to turn that whole feature off, or at least be able to remove certain things (like timer) from showing up in there.
I do not see a Timer in the Status Bar of the iPhone SE (1st Gen), iPhone 8, or iPhone 12 Pro.
To improve understanding of the phenomenon, it would be highly beneficial if you could share a screenshot. Visual representations carry greater impact than written descriptions.

I do see iPhone 7 down at bottom…no clue how that got there.
I had this problem and it removed it when I set my alarm and unset it again.
Thank you for the solution, I wish the devs would automate the 0 timer dismissal though. 😅
