Timers might use just a wee bit more because they will have a check to produce an alarm when the timer expires. But we’re still taking negligible values.
Not even, really. They use “wake timers” the same way every other app does, the loop in the OS runs for that regardless of if an alarm exists. It’s just one more item in the queue that gets ignored until it goes off. And stopwatches don’t even have that.
Watch out man, my bf swears that leaving a timer going in the background will kill your battery
