    I use timers on my phone for everything. They are labeled, so when they reach zero they tell me what past-me started so present-me can take care of it. Couldn’t live without them.

      I am not so great about labeling my timers, but I am g great at labeling my alarms.

      I recently got an Apple Watch which makes setting timers easy even when I lose my phone.

        I label my alarms but then reuse them and instead of deleting the old thing I often just type the new thing. My 7am alarm for awhile was ground beef Shania Twain crossbow boots.

        If you’re using voice commands to get Siri to set those timers, you can tell it to set something like a “chicken timer” or “rice timer” and the timers will be labeled.
