User level: Level 1 (10 points)How do I revert the timer to the old version? This new version (top pull down) limits me minutes no seconds and caps at 2 hrs. I cannot jump into the timer to set long timers with the simple pull down. It now requires me multiple actions just to get into the timer.

From the the Control Center screen hold your finger on the on the Timer icon (don't just tap it) and you'll get a menu that says "Start Timer". Tap it and you get the old timer. OR tap the clock on the home screen and you'll get the world clock with the option on the bottom to choose the timer. At least that's the way it works on my SE3.

I had the same issue. If you create a shortcut to open the clock app and then add that to your doc, it circumvent the issue until Apple fixes it. I added images. Hope this helps

It used to be super handy, useful, convenient. Now it is not.

Exactly! Why change something that is working very well? And in this case, also make it less efficient and less effective? I don’t think it looks better, either.
