After starting the Timer, you will not be able to change the music or who can see it, so make sure you chose the right settings.
The Timer will then be automatically displayed for your attendees who will be able to see the countdown and control the volume.

Mute the music (only for yourself)
Add more minutes
Pause it
Stop it before the end
If you close the Timer when it's running, you will see a notification on the Apps icon.
10When the countdown is over, your attendees will hear a notification and the Timer will close on their side.
