I too hate the radial sound. If I set my own timer to my favorite and then set another time, the timer remembers my choice. If Siri sets the timer, it goes back to radial. Apple, are you listening. Can we see this changed in the next OS upgrade please?

I always used it to turn off what I was listening to through an in ear headphone as I go to sleep. Now, even if I manually change it to do this, it defaults to radial and wakes us both up instead. This is so frustrating. I am on the most up to date version of iOS. If anyone else discovers a fix, I’d be really grateful if it could be shared.

Apple come on already! I used the timer at night to stop playing music but it keeps switching to radial and thus waking me up in the morning. It never holds to the last setting. Please help!

Changing Timer Settings:

Even if you could change this timer setting, it's not recommended. So, let it sit.

  1. Go here: If you can't Change the Time or Time Zone on your Apple Device - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: Learn more about time settings
  3. As it Reads: "Manual adjustments to time settings to change app behavior (like game timers) aren't recommended."
