Frequently asked questions

Do the beeps keep going when the phone is locked?

Yes. Start a timer, then lock: the beeps keep going. On iPhone, the time left shows on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island; on Android, in the notification.

Does my music stop?

No. It keeps playing; its volume dips briefly at each beep. Only an "Alarm" ending pauses the music while it rings.

I hear nothing.

Check the media volume (not the ringer volume) and, on iPhone, that no call is in progress. Beeps follow the media volume, the alarm follows the alarm volume.

Notifications are turned off.

The beeps still play. To see the time left on the lock screen, allow notifications in your phone settings.

I declined the Alarms permission (iPhone).

An alarm ending still rings, through the app, while it runs in the background. For the iPhone alert, even with the app closed: Settings > Timer Waitiii > Alarms.

The alarm stopped by itself.

An alarm nobody stops ends on its own after 10 minutes, so it never rings forever.

Several timers at once?

Yes, up to four. Each has its own color and sound; swipe on the dial to switch between them.

Change the language?

The app follows your phone language (English or French). On Android 13 and later, and on iPhone, you can also pick the app language in your phone settings.

I deleted a preset (Tooth brushing, HIIT…).

App settings > "Restore presets".
