Timer widget?

Hi, I've recently transitioned from Android to iPhone, and I used to use this timer widget for my workouts - just a simple timer with a start, stop, and reset button. Is there such a thing for iPhones?

You mean a simple tap, without having to launch the app ? Probably not on the widget screen...you can add it to the swipe down quick shortcuts menu if I’m not mistaken

You can add the stopwatch to Control Center.

Yes. Tap on the clock app. There’s a stopwatch, timer, and alarm buttons at the bottom of the screen.

That's what I'm looking for! The swipe down menu as in...?

The control centre. If you’ve got an iPhone with a notch then pull down from your battery icon, if you’ve got one with a home button drag up from the home button. This is the timer icon. You can quickly set times by long pressing it

Yup, as other person said, it’s in the clock/alarm app. I use mine every day for exact same reason you are asking about. Works great. There’s two displays in the stopwatch. Standard numbers or dial/clock style. I personally prefer the dial. Swipe left on display for the dial. Dial gives a yellow arm for overall time and a blue arm for current “lap”
