A timer that stops after ten seconds

Several years ago, I was able to set a timer on my Android phone and tell it how long to beep. For example, I could tell it to countdown 10 minutes (or whatever time I set) and then to beep for 20 seconds, and then stop. This wasn't an alarm clock--just a simple countdown timer. On my just-purchased Moto G6, I notice that there is no setting for the duration of the timer sound; it keeps making its sound indefinitely.

Is there a timer app available that lets the user set the duration of the "timer-is-finished" sound? In other words, an app that I can tell to go off in ten minutes and beep (or otherwise make a sound) for, say, 20 seconds, and then stop?

I've downloaded and tried "Alarm Clock Xtreme", "Stopwatch and timer", and "Countdown Timer"; none offer any control over how long the timer sound lasts. The user has to shut off the timer sound manually. Again, I don't want to set an alarm; just how many minutes before a timer goes off.
 
Did you try getting some more apps?If that didn't work instead of using that phone,why don't you try using another phone to set your timer duration of the beeps and when it go's off.

I have the paid version of this and there may be a workaround if you don't need things too exact, by setting an alarm. There is an auto-dismiss function in the alarm settings. If it's 7:16 and you want a ten minute timer, then set an alarm for 7:26 with an auto-dismiss duration of your choosing. It wouldn't allow to the second timing like a true timer would, but I wanted to suggest it in case you'd be ok with something like that instead.

I don't know for sure if that option is available in the free version. It's been so long that I don't remember if there's any functional difference between the two versions or just ad removal.
