Mine keep on coming back no matter how I delete them it's like Jason and the argonauts . The skeletons just keep on coming back no matter how I tap them out. When I tap the 2nd or 3rd time I don't get the red delete symbol.

Yes, that 's correct. You can only delete timers you did create. The default ones can not be removed.

But, if you create some more of your choice and pin them, those default timers will move out of sight.


All users wanting Apple to change this feature in upcoming updates, should let them know directly, using the Feedback link. This is the only way to reach them, as Apple does not follow theses user to user communities.
