What ⏲️ timer clock means
Twenty-four of these characters are clock faces — every hour and every half-hour — and hardly anyone uses them to state a time; the half-past set arrived in Unicode 7.0. What people actually reach for is ⏳ and ⌛ for waiting, ⏰ for a deadline or a wake-up, and ⏱️ for speed. The clock faces mostly decorate.
Unicode tags this one clock, timer and files it under Travel & Places → Time.
