One Timer Ought to Be Enough for Anybody

Really, why would anyone ever want two timers?

Maybe some day, in the distant future, humanity will harness the advanced technology necessary to run two timers at the same time.

A request for Siri to set a time for five minutes, to which it replaces “There's already a 1 hour timer. Replace it?”

I hope I’m alive to see it.


Update (February 9, 2023): As reader Miraz J. notes, belying the “dumbwatch” label I’ve given it, the Apple Watch is capable of running two (or more!) timers at once. This feature was actually added in 2021’s WatchOS 8 release, which makes it even more comical that the vastly more powerful iPhone can’t do it in 2023.
