It’s pretty simple, calculate and set custom timers. For instance, for a timer in every 15 mins, set 15 mins. Follow the same for others. However, it could be a pretty time-consuming process, especially if you want to repeat timers daily for water or workout cycles or something. In that case, you can employ third-party timer apps. What’s great, there are plenty of options in the App Store to cater to your specific goal. For instance, interval timers for circuit training, focus timers on improving productivity, and even countdown timers.
