How to revert the timer interface on iPhone 15 with iOS 27.0.1?

I have an iPhone 15 with iOS 27.0.1 installed yesterday. Is there anyway to roll back the timer interface? Specifically the slider at the top. I want to be able to access my various timers but I have to start this new 15 minute timer to get to where my saved timers are.

I think we are talking past each other here


what Chris and Bill are experiencing is a new timer UI from Control Center (swiping down from Home Screen).


for reasons passing understanding, ios27 uses a different (horizontal) slider for the Timer in CC than the one available via the Clock app. the new Timer UI (pic attached) is NOT as functional as the traditional Clock Timer, which is oddly still available via Clock if you want to bypass CC and login to your phone.


Apple: can you help users find a way to add the Clock Timer UI to Control Center? Thanks!

I couldn’t find any noticeable difference in the Timer interface between iOS 26 (iPhone 12 Pro) and iOS 27 (iPhone 13 Pro). I have included a screenshot of the Timer interface on my device below for your reference.


You mentioned: “I have an iPhone 15 with iOS 27.0.1 installed yesterday. Is there any way to roll back the Timer interface? Specifically, the slider at the top.”


Based on my observation, I am unable to identify the change in the Timer interface you are referring to, particularly the slider at the top. Therefore, either I have misunderstood what you mean by the change, or your claim that the Timer interface has changed in iOS 27.0.1 may be incorrect.



Could you please post a screenshot of your Timer interface and point out the specific slider you are referring to? Comparing it with the screenshot I have provided should help us establish whether there is an actual difference between the two iOS versions or whether the issue lies elsewhere.

I don’t like the new initial timer interface either, in iOS 27.0.1. We must choose a number of minutes on a sliding scale from 1 to 120, then if you pause you can have the scale change to 15 second increments. Of course your finger is hiding the actual display so it makes the interface difficult. Please revert back to the previous initial timer interface.
