Affected app version

1.2.2

Affected Android/Custom ROM version

Android 16 / GrapheneOS 2025070800

Affected device model

Pixel 8

How did you install the app?

GitHub releases

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Go to settings
  2. Set Max reminder duration in TIMER TAB to 1 minute
  3. Start a timer. For a test, I have set a timer to 02:59:00.
  4. Lock phone and leave it locked
  5. Wait until timer expires and the timer alarm sound starts
  6. Don't touch the phone and wait until the timer alarm sound stops automatically

Expected behavior

The timer alarm sound stops after 1 minute

Actual behavior

Sometimes, the timer alarm sound stops after 1 minute, as expected. However, sometimes, the timer alarm sound does not stop automatically. It continues for minutes until the phone is woken up by pressing the power button. When pressing the power button, the alarm sound immediately stops and the lock screen is shown. There is no notification message shown which is related to the timer.

Screenshots/Screen recordings

No response

Additional information

I have noticed this problem since months. Therefore, I don't assume that this is a new issue of one of the latest releases.

I use GrapheneOs with multiple users. I have tested this issue by running this app in an additional user profile, not in the owner profile. I don't know whether this makes any difference. During the test, I have not switched the user profile.

The app has all permissions (Notifications, Sensors).

For this app, the app setting Allow background usage is set to Optimised

Set Max reminder duration in TIMER TAB to 1 minute

Have you observed this issue with alarms as well, or does this only affect timers?
