Hence... why Apple should step in and fix it in iPadOS. 10,000 apps haven't been able to get it right, due to the real estate they've had to work in. So difficult to have a small Apple Watch size calculator in a corner of the search window or side area of iPadOS? Or, perhaps it can now be an option for multitasking an app?

For the love of god allow us to delete all messages at once in the messages app. I couldn’t believe there was no way to do this when I first bought an Apple Watch, and that was four years ago.
I’ve been asking for this for years. Now if only we can get the compilations to be smart and rotate depending on your daily routine.
Nothing like having to contact Cupertino to see if you’re aloud to set a timer
It’s a shame what I’d consider an overdue fix is this year’s big feature
With watchOS 8, Apple will finally allow users to set multiple timers within the Timers app. Each specific timer can be given a label, such as laundry or cooking timer, and is viewed in a single list.
watchOS 8 has a wide range of features, including a new standalone Find My app that allows users to find and locate items part of the Find My network right on their wrist. Additionally, watchOS 8 renames the Breathe app to Mindfulness with an "enhanced Breathe experience" and new session types such as Reflect. Learn more about watchOS 8 here.

The new Messages for watchOS demo during the WWDC keynote certainly demonstrated this well. And yes, I'll take multiple timers too, but syncing timers between devices would be great!
I was very skeptical about possible blood glucose ability with the new watch but, now, I am not so sure of my previous position. The following is from the iOS 15 Preview webpage. https://www.apple.com/ios/ios-15-preview/features/
"Blood glucose highlights
Receive highlights that show your blood glucose levels during sleep as well as during exercise. Interactive charts make it even easier for you to review your blood glucose data.6"
Granted this is probably highlighting the ability for diabetics to more easily monitor their levels etc. but, I think this could also be showing a little sneak peak at what an Apple Watch may focus on in this area as well.
Something to think about.

Soft but crispy bacon, the patient way:
place bacon in pan and just barely cover the bacon with water
cook on high heat until the water is almost all evaporated
continue searing on med-low to your crispy preference
enjoy your crispy but not overdone and still flexible bacon with no tough chewy fat. Bonus time! filter the rendered fat through a paper towel and freeze it. Next time you have fried eggs use it as your cooking fat
As the old adage goes, one never stops learning ;-) .... that sounds rather tasty!
The movement for Apple Cooking+, free with the top tier of Apple One, starts here.....
Not only did the iOS clock app not get support for multiple timers, but they also went backwards to the old trash rolodex time selector for the alarms page:
I was beyond happy when Apple made it better in iOS 14. This UI element needs to go, it's terrible for both experience and ever-so-precious screen real-estate.

About time. When I first got my watch I had a use case at the time for this (now forgotten) and couldn’t believe that I couldn’t set more than one timer. It’s frustrating that Apple takes so long to do some simple things. Instead they invest in fluff like new memoji’s.
Had to use timer+ to get multiple timers. Unfortunately that required setting the timer on your phone. There is another app that allows multiple timers that you can set on your watch w/o the need of your phone but it required watchOS 7 (I have a series 1).
