Hi gang, I have a repeting alarm for 6am every weekday. When it goes off, I turn off the alarm and set a timer for 20 minutes, and get up when it goes off. This morning after I turned off my alarm, I asked siri to set a timer for 20 minutes. The response was, a timer is already running, do I want to restart it? Perhaps this is the background App feature that we've heard about. I'll check it out some more and let you know.
