To set a new timer, open the 3 dot menu icon in the top left corner and click on Timer. There is an option for a Break Timer or a Sleep Timer.

Break Timer

A break timer can be set to alert you to take a break. You could set it for 1 hour and when the hour is up, you’ll get a notification to stop work, study or whatever you are focused on doing and the sounds will stop. To set the break timer, first set the time, then just press the button to start.

Sleep Timer

The sleep timer can be set to slowly go from your preferred mix of rain sounds and volume to mute, which is great for sleeping so that the turning off doesn’t harshly interrupt your sleeping and wake you up again. To set the sleep timer, first set the time, then just press the button to start.
