Good to know

• When the time is up, Lyra pauses the music. The song stays in the player, so you can carry on from where it stopped.
• To change a running timer, tap Cancel and set a new one.

If something goes wrong

I can't find Sleep timer

It's in the menu of the full player, not in the ⋯ menu of a song in a list. Open the player first by tapping the song at the bottom of the screen.

The music kept playing

Open Sleep timer to check that a timer is running and how much time is left.
