Hi Apple Developer Forums,
I’m a heavy user of the Shortcuts app and the new multiple timers in iOS have been incredibly helpful. However, there is one limitation that makes them hard to use in automations.
Right now, the “Start Timer” action in Shortcuts does not let you set a Label for the timer. This means when a timer created by a shortcut goes off, I can’t tell what it was for (for example, a 15‑minute laundry timer vs. a 15‑minute tea timer), even though labeled timers already work perfectly in the Clock app.
Feature request: please add a Label field to the “Start Timer” action in Shortcuts so automations can create named timers, just like in the Clock app. This would make multiple timers much more practical for automation and for power users.
Thank you for considering this improvement.
