In previous versions of iOS, accessing the Timer from Control Center provided quick access to my saved/recent timers. In iOS 27, the Timer control now opens a duration slider instead.
I would like Apple to restore the ability to quickly select a previously saved timer directly from Control Center.
The current slider is useful for creating a new timer, but it adds extra steps when I simply want to reuse a timer that I have already created. Having to open the Clock app and navigate to Timers → Recent defeats the convenience of having a Timer control in Control Center.
Ideally, Apple could either:
Restore the previous saved-timer list when tapping the Timer control, or
Provide an option in Settings to choose between the duration slider and saved/recent timers.
Please consider bringing back this functionality in a future iOS update.
