Is there a sleep timer?

I want to listen to Dwell while I sleep. Is there a sleep timer?

Written by Jen Quirk

Yes! Dwell will play all night if you'd like, but most people use our built-in Sleep Timer to turn it off automatically. ⏰


Two Ways to Set the Sleep Timer

You can reach the Sleep Timer from the player itself or from the options menu. Use whichever is easier.

From the player

  1. Start playing any audio selection.

  2. Tap the moon icon on the right side of the player.

The Sleep Timer opens right away, no extra taps needed.

From the options menu

  1. Start playing any audio selection.

  2. Tap the options button at the bottom of your screen.

  3. Tap Sleep Timer.


Choosing How Long

Once the Sleep Timer is open, you can stop playback after a set amount of time or at a natural stopping point in what you're listening to.

By time:

  • Choose one of the preset times

  • Or set a custom duration

By where you are in the content:

  • End of track

  • End of chapter

  • End of plan day

  • End of playlist

💡 Pro Tip: If you're partway through a chapter or a plan day, try one of the content options instead of a set time. Dwell will finish what you started and then stop on its own, rather than cutting off mid-sentence.


Adjusting the Timer

Once the timer is running, you can update it at any time directly from the player. Just tap the moon icon again.


Sweet dreams! 😴
