The 'Alert settings' screen is shown below. This screen allows you to control what happens when an event occurs; the type, name and volume of the sound, how long the sound will last, how often it will repeat, etc. The links to the right of the image will give further detail about specific functions of this screen.

Miscellaneous
Trigger

These trigger settings only apply to the custom settings of events, and cannot be applied as a default setting. Consequently, this tab will not be displayed when you open the "Alert settings" screen from the main menu in Bob's Alarm. The tab will only be displayed when you are assigning custom settings to an alarm or timer event.

Trigger Timer/App: Both Alarms and Timers can trigger additional Timer events or they can launch a different application.

Name: Choose the name of the Timer or App that you want to trigger from the popup list.

On: Selecting when you want the trigger action to take place: If the event is a custom repeating timer, you can choose to have the trigger action happen on each repeat, or only on the last repeat.

Timer repeat: If the event is a timer, you will have the option to assign a custom repeat. After the timer counts down fully, the alert will sound and the timer will automatically reset itself to the previous setting and it will begin counting down again. This will continue for the specified number of repeats. If a 10 minute timer is set to repeat 4 times, there will be 5 alerts (the original and 4 repeats) spanning a total of 40 minutes.
