I cannot figure out why the snooze and stop buttons are reversed for the alarm and the timer. For one, the stop button is in the middle of the screen, and for the other it's at the bottom of the screen. Why wouldn't this be standardized?

So if you're fumbling at your phone half asleep the large and bright orange button in the place you're most used to is the snooze button, which is easy to hit without actually waking up.

Hitting the out of place small gray button to turn the alarm off entirely is easy to do if you're slightly more awake.

If you turn snooze off in the alarm settings you can have a big orange Stop button in the middle like with timers.

But I understand this design was too helpful and is being removed in iOS 26 because the different looking buttons don't match and the most important thing for an alarm is that it look pretty.

Thank you brother. This has been driving me insane for years. A remarkable lack of attention to details.
