A long press is only needed to set it in stopwatch mode.
Yes, and when you do so, it overwrites the dish's timer. Switch back and you have your dish with no time set, hmm. It ****s up the look and feel like a sledgehammer.

Now you have a stopwatch mode that activates the time counter bar before start. That doesn't integrate in cooktimer's previous look and feel, as a coloured time counter bar stood for a running (paused) timer.

Please rethink my upper suggestion. It would enable toggling the continue mode before starting a timer as well.

Why add such a thing when it could smoothly be done with an existing method and doing so would give an additional advantage (toogle without running the timer)? It's hard to comprehend for me.

peace, it's just a timer
