Shortcut failures with "wait command"

Why do shortcuts time out whet setting a wait command? For example, I requested the shortcut to play a song and perform further action after the end of the song (e.g. 300 seconds). Is there an alternative command?

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 16

Hi TrickPat,


For help with Shortcuts on your iPhone, you can test editing the command for a shorter period of time. The Shortcuts guide can be helpful. Navigate the action list in Shortcuts on iPhone or iPad, with the full guide here: Shortcuts User Guide


You can also check your current Auto-Lock settings to ensure there are no conflicts: Keep the iPhone display on longer - Apple Support


Maybe others will help personal experience as well and respond.



Cheers.
