Stop Playing on Mac Clock App Not Working

With all due respect, if it wasn't meant to work like it does on the iPhone then why did Apple bother including it? The "Stop Playing" feature is designed to stop audio/video from playing but I've yet to find a single piece of media that it will stop playing once the timer is up.

I'll use the link you provided and share my feedback but I still find it odd that I have to tell Apple to make a feature they included to work as intended.

it makes sense that with all the operations happening in macOS versus a iOS it would make sense how the Clock app might get confused as to what it needs to stop. As you said, it's clear that this feature was just an oversight but hopefully something Apple will look into.

Again, I would completely understand if it's limited to only Apple apps like Music, TV and QuickTime but then eventually opened up to other apps or find a way to recognize media played from Safari tabs.

It's pretty clear that Apple included the Clock app without fully testing all its features or maybe they figured they'd include it then address it once they had enough complaints from people like myself.

Cheers! 👍🏽
