My Apple Watch timer has saved the day several times while I'm cheffing it up in the kitchen. I can stepmom tricked into sex with son hd porn videoseasily pop a dish in the oven, set a timer on my wrist, and forget about it until the silent vibration lets me know it's time to take my dish out.
But if you're cooking more than a one-pot meal, you probably need more than one timer. Here's how to set up multiple timers on your Apple Watch, for your cooking – or really, any other – needs.
1. Make sure you have watchOS 8 downloaded to your Apple Watch 3 or newer.
The ability to set up multiple timers in the Apple Watch's native timer app comes new with the latest software update. The watchOS 8 update is currently only available via the public or developer beta, which requires you to also have the iOS 15 beta downloaded to your iPhone. If you'd prefer to wait for the general release of watchOS 8 and iOS 15, check back in later this fall.
