How to change the sound
of any of timers [iOS]
Perhaps one of the most significant features of the timer is the Alert sound.
When the user adds a timer to the board, it has a default alert sound specified in the settings. This sound can be changed in the app's Settings (Menu > Settings > Sound settings. SOUND OF TIMER ALERT: Default).
Subsequently, the user has the possibility to change the sounds and style of the timer alerting.
To do this, the user should:
1. Go into the timer settings and go to the 'ALERT' page by clicking on the corresponding settings item.
The timer settings can be opened in 2 ways:
By pressing the 'Edit' button on the timer pop-up menu after long-pressing the timer, or
long press on the timer after resetting it when the pop-up context menu is disabled in the Settings.

2. On the 'ALERT' page the user can see 3 options: Play:...; Warning; Repeat.
Play:... is a special section that allows the user to select the timer alert style.
Warning is a function which warns the user about the end of the timer with three beeps.
The function is active only when the application is in the foreground.Repeat - function gives the number of additional/repeating notifications for 5 minutes.

By clicking 'Play:...' on the Alert page, you can select the following alert styles: Melody, Voice Alert, Vibration, No alerting.
Melody
When you click "Melody", the "Sounds" page opens - a set of available, preset sounds. All sounds are divided into sections, each sound has its own duration, which is indicated under the name of the sound.
Voice Alert
Clicking on the "Voice Alert" button opens a page where you can record any 30-second alert sound. It can be your own spoken text or another sound you just like.
To make a recording, you must click on the microphone icon. If the microphone icon is not available, you must go to the Settings app > MultiTimer application on your device and turn on the switch next to Microphone.
As soon as you release the microphone button, a pop-up will appear in which you can name the audio file.
To change the file name or delete it, you have to swipe it to the left.
The file selected as the notification sound is marked with a checkmark.
Vibration
Tapping "Vibration" disables the sound alert and enables only vibration.
Tapping "No alerting" disables all alert styles.
You can check the notification style by tapping ▶︎, which is located in the upper right corner.
Some features only work when the app is running - is in the foreground.
The app does not allow you to add your own sounds - this is due to iOS limitations.
The interval timer has settings for a timer end sound and a start sound for each interval.
The stepped timer has a setting for both the timer end sound and the start sound for each interval.
We periodically expand the list of sounds by adding user-recommended tunes.
