Alarm clock: Timer sound - setting repetition count

pabt — Sun, 07 May 2023 21:01:16 GMT

Regarding the built-in "Clock" app:

The app has the four (standard) features:
1. "Alarm"
2. "World Clock"
3. "Stopwatch"
4. "Timer"

The Timer is able to count backwards and output a pre-configured sound.

The problem is that it emits the same sound repetitively, without stopping.
Meaning, if the sound duration is 1 second, then the same one second is being repeated again and again, producing a stressful sound.

Would highly appreciate if Samsung could modify it such that we would be able to program the amount of repetitions.
For example, having repetition = 1 would execute the sound file only once and then it will stop.

Maybe turn it off after one ring?

I use it for meditation or waking up after sleep.

It takes me some time to reach the smartphone and is causing me to feel stressed.
