In all the prior iOS releases the timer countdown would appear on the lock screen.

Did Apple, in it's infinite wisdom, decide in iOS 12 this wasn't necessary anymore and prefer I have to open the Clock app to see the status (or ask Siri)?

I am hoping there's some setting to put this back in iOS12??

When you start a timer it displays on the lock screen directly below the time. At least it does for me on 12.1 b5
