Timer on IPhone 12

My timer sound used to be just a normal ring/alarm and suddenly it’s this obnoxious music. I haven’t changed anything and can’t find where to fix that.

iPhone 12, iOS 14

Hi, Bluemoonchild,


To change the sound that plays when your timer is done, open follow the path below:


  1. Open the Clock app
  2. Tap the Timer tab
  3. Below the time selection wheel and the Cancel/Start buttons, tap "When Timer Ends"
  4. Select a tone from the list provided. It will preview when you tap it. If you want to hear more traditional alarms or ringers, scroll all the way to the bottom of the list and select "Classic". A second menu will pop up.


If you still need help after that, don't hesitate to respond back.


Enjoy your weekend!
