I usually press the "+1 minute" button and then the "pause" button. That way it stays in the tray of my phone and I'm too OCD to not get rid of it as soon as possible. Then of course you have to adhere to the rule of only removing the timer once you did what you set the timer for...

Use alarms and snooze them instead giving you 10 min until it rimgs again. Repeat until task is done

But then don't you have to set it to a precise time on the clock each time you use it, rather than "30 min in the future", for example? The issue for me is timers that I set often, like while cooking. Seems like a minor annoyance maybe but I use them while cooking and entertaining especially, AKA having my attention severely split already lol, additional complexity is to be avoided
