Google is developing a new timer widget for the Clock app

Google will soon release a new widget for its Google Clock app that will add a timer function directly to the device's home screen.

Here's What We Know

This will give users the ability to start new timers with a single tap. Google Clock already offers five widgets, including clock faces and a stopwatch widget, but the new timer widget may be the most convenient of all.

The 7.9.1 update to Clock out revealed that the new widget will include pre-configured options to start timers for 1, 5, or 10 minutes.

This widget will be especially useful for those who need to quickly set up multiple timers at once, such as in the kitchen.

Although it is not yet available to the general public, its release could make everyday tasks much easier.
