Focus and timer

Choose a timer sound

I want to …

… pick the sound that plays when a session or a Pomodoro phase ends.

Before you start

  • Works on every plan (Free, Pro, Ultra) and for every role (Owner, Admin, Member).
  • The sound is part of your personal Timer settings. It belongs to your account and syncs across your devices. It does not depend on the workspace or the board.
  • There are eight choices, including Silent.

Here's how

  1. Open Focus and tap the line under the clock. It ends with the current sound, for example Fixed · 25 Min · Mystery. Elsewhere, long-press or right-click the clock in the focus bar (phone) or in the board header (wide screen).
  2. Timer settings opens. Find Timer sound.
  3. The chips are Mystery, Bell, Big Gong, Small Gong, Glass, Hey, Wood, and Silent.
  4. Tap a chip. The sound is selected and plays once as a preview. Silent plays nothing.
  5. Close the sheet. The choice is already saved.
  6. Start a timer. When time is up you hear that sound. In Pomodoro it plays at the end of every phase.

The result

Each session ends with the sound you chose, on every device you sign in on.

Common questions

Does the sound apply to the whole team?

No. Each person picks their own sound.

How do I get a fully quiet end?

Pick Silent. The line under the clock then shows a crossed-out note. In the iPhone and Android apps, also turn off Vibrate at the end, or the phone still vibrates.

Where did Timer sound in Settings go?

It moved into Timer settings, next to the other timer controls. If you had picked a sound on a device before, that device keeps it until you pick a sound in Timer settings on any of your devices.
