iOS 17 Timer resets to “radial sound alarm” from “stop playing when timer ends”

Apple has been ruining my sleep schedule ever since the iOS 17 update. I put on shows to fall asleep to, and set a timer every night for 20 minutes, and when the timer ends, the show needs to stop playing so I can continue to sleep. This used to work flawlessly on previous iOS versions. However, ever since the upgrade to iOS 17 (iPad), when the timer ends, an alarm goes off - despite the fact that I’ve set it to stop playing, and no alarm sound. This needs to stop. I’m writing this message after being woken up yet again. It doesn’t happen every night. Just randomly. Then I diligently set it to stop playing when timer ends, and it just randomly switches back to alarm sound again.

iPad, iPadOS 17

If you have identified a consistent software bug, this can be reported to Apple using the Product Feedback portal. For iPad and iPadOS:

Feedback - iPad - Apple


When submitting your bug report, ensure that you include your iPad model and installed version of iPadOS within the body of your report. Do not rely upon the pick-list - as this rarely includes the most recent versions of iOS/iPadOS.
