I like the new feature in iOS 17 to where you can have multiple timers, HOWEVER I hate that when I set a timer it no longer shows me the timers end time. It just shows the amount of time the timer was originally set for. PLEASE bring back the feature where you could see a timers end time, once the timer has been set.
iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 17
I was also upset that the end time feature was gone. However, the end time feature is still there. I accidentally discovered this. All you have to do is after you start your timer, place your finger on the time and the end time will appear.
Use the suggestion someone else made to verbally ask Siri to set timer. She sets it perfectly, down to the second!
It was a great function to see what real time the timer ended and it is very sad that Apple took this functionality away in the new 17.3.1 update.
I wrote to apple as you all should and they did write me back the very next day. (Shocked) they told to do the thing that I hate to do……….i have to reopen the alarm to see the time it is set for. Ughhhhhhh
Just choose the iPhone category; they will know where to put it.
Absolute dumbest change I've ever seen... you can bet that if 30 people have though enough about this to take time out of their day to post about it... there are thousands of folks that are silently ****** off.
Since they’ve done so many new updates, the only one I relied on was the end time for the timer. Why can’t they make this an option for us to reinstall? I’m okay with math but the old feature was way easier to set the correct time needed.
I thought I was crazy too and it bothers me every time I set a timer because I really liked that feature and thought maybe I saw it on someone else’s phone but this forum makes me not feel crazy and verifies that I wasn’t crazy haha. Please bring that feature back!!
Indeed, Larry, indeed!!!
I am still trying to find an answer to these few questions, thö— MAYBE you'll know(?):
1.0» Is the forum were in, right now, one in which Apple participates to a significant degree, or is it simply a “user-to-user forum,” which will have no influence on Apple, at all?
——1.1» If the answer is the latter, where do you think the best place to suggest something to apple would be located?
2.0» Is this particular forum a "user-to-user" forum, ONLY... Or, does Apple participate significantly, here?
(Asking for a friend🙂)
You yell 'em, Larry! 😀

I agree….this is frustrating. To lose this feature is a step backwards. If it isn’t broken, why “fix” it?
It isn’t helpful if you are setting it and not trying to disturb others.
Bring the end time back on the timer.
I agree. I want the end time display brought back. Showing me the original duration of the timer is not at all helpful. The end time IS.
Where can you add feedback about the clock/timer? I don’t see it listed as one of the apps.
I was just saying the same thing! I loved the timer before as it would tell you what the time will be when your timer ends. Please bring back the old one. I personally don’t need multiple timers!
