Mute “Timer” sound (not the alarm)

How do you set the “Timer” sound (not the alarm) to “none” when the Timer ends?

Thank you

There is no choice for None. If you set it to Stop Playing, it will not make a sound.

I understand what the function of that setting is for. However, there is no setting for None as I said before. That is the closest workaround for you if you do not wish to have a sound when the timer is done. The mute switch on the phone will not silence the alarm or the timer either.

When you set it to “stop playing” its function is to stop playing whatever music/audiobook/sound app you had playing. It is basically for falling asleep to music/audiobook/sound app but stopping that music/audiobook/sound app from playing all night when you are unconscious. It does not change the timer to simply vibrate without a tone when timer times out.
