I have my alarm set for a sound when it goes off and timer set for no sound. 
This way, I can most times ask Siri to set a timer for BARD, but use alarms at 
other times. Setting an alarm may not be as precise as using the countdown 
timer, but for most uses it is perfectly acceptable.

I’ve never set one of these timers for Bard in the native clock app, but I 
noticed that there was a setting that says “when timer ends”. You can 
double-tap on the current action that it has set up to start when the timer 
ends, usually the name of the alert tone, and at the bottom of that screen, 
there’s an item that says, “stop playing”. I imagine this would stop bARD 
playing, as well.

On the other hand, there are different fingers.
