[Feature Request] Add Timeout / Auto-dismiss option

Open ilius opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Please add an option to countdown timer to enable timeout or auto-dismiss interval. For example if set to 10 seconds, the alarm will dismiss after 10 seconds from activating without user interaction.

@ilius check if the setting 'Max reminder duration' for the 'timer tab' is already what you are looking for. It was buggy for quite some time #296

Hi @ZarVladimirII Sorry for my delayed reply.

I just tested the latest release and "Max reminder duration" setting seems to work.

However for a long time I thought the timer doesn't work at all, because my device was on Silent / Mute mode. While Android Clock's alarms and timers do work in this mode (they use Media Volume I think), seems like Simple Clock is using "Ringtone Volume" (which is on zero in this mode, so we don't hear anything). Not sure which one is the right way, but definitely an inconsistency that users should be wary of.

Is this intentional?
