IOS update 9.0.2 Switched Stopwatch Start Button

On my iPad, I use my stopwatch timer daily to keep track of keep track of how long my children do a certain exercise during the day. After the new IOS 9.0.2 update to my iPad, I noticed that I would keep resetting my stopwatch. That was weird. I’ve never had a problem with that before. Upon comparing my iPad to another in the home that has not had the upgrade I noticed a difference. I posted pictures below.

Timer after update – Start button on the right.

Apparently, the “Start” button switched sides!  I am so used to touching the “Start” button on the right side that now after the recent update, I end up resetting my time. Why would they change something like that? It’s a small change, but it has a big impact. I have to retrain my brain where the new “Start” button is. I guess I could view it as good for my brain since it challenges it. But in the meantime, there will be alot of frustrations with resetting my time since I don’t always pay attention to what time I had gotten to in the first place. Did I do 7 minutes or 8? Still, it’s rather frustrating.
