Please allow for multiple simultaneous countdown timers, and also allow screen to blank and/or switch to other screens while countdown continues. _Mod Note: Title Edited to Enhance Search Clarity._ ---

Change how timer works. I think it would be best if the side button took you to main screen while it ran. I would like to know the time, or use other functions, while using the timer. I also think when the timer is running only the pause button should be seen. And when pressed should show a resume (play) or trash can. ---

It would also be nice if timers could run in the background. if you have a 30 minutes timer, that is a long time to not be able to use any other watch functions. **[Mod Note]:** _Your request was moved to this topic for consistency in grouping similar requests._
