macos – What’s fallacious with the Clock app (on Sequoia first, even worse now on Tahoe)?

I’ve been experiencing this because the newest Sequoia patches (15.4+) and now, in Tahoe (26.0.1), the Clock app is totally damaged for me.
Again in Sequoia, I began to note a particular slowdown within the Timer operate solely: clicking on the inexperienced button to start out a timer wouldn’t reply till, about 20 seconds later, as many timers as you clicked would seem, all began on the right time. Urgent on ‘Cancel’ would get the identical behaviour. The button wouldn’t reply or, higher, it could reply about 20 seconds later.
After updating to Tahoe over the weekend, the Clock app is now unusable: the ‘Native Instances’ tab ‘+’ button takes a number of seconds to reply; the ‘Stopwatch’ tab apparently begins however there is no such thing as a numbers on display screen. Urgent the Lap button given a sequence of “0:00:00” laps; the ‘Alarm’ tab apparently works till, then, the alarm will not be set; lastly, the ‘Timer’ tab is simply clean (or, effectively, black). No interface, nothing in any respect.
I can put up a video of what I see if crucial. Maybe the Clock app will not be one thing too utilized by folks generally so few if anybody has ever reported this? Each macOS replace or improve has been flawless, and the SSV would have repaired any harm throughout set up if it discovered it or despatched me to Restoration if it was so dangerous.
Sadly, the Clock app is bundled with macOS so I can not simply uninstall it and restore it from the App Retailer.

Is anybody else seeing this too? Is there something one can do? I had an Apple Assistant Suggestions open in case you wish to be part of the report: FB20663940.
Thanks!
