I’ve corrected you a couple times now because you keep repeating the wrong info.

The one hour widow is where you have to TURN ON the setting after waiting 24 hours. You will not get a notification for when the 24 hour timer is up, you have to set you own alarm.

Once you turn on the setting you can have it on indefinitely.

You are confusing 2 things

1. After the 24 hours waiting period is up you have 1 hour to turn the setting on or you have to wait 24 hours again to have the opportunity to turn the setting on. This is not noted in any docs, I only heard this from another Lemmy thread where several ppl confirmed this happened to them.

2. Once you turn the setting on you can select if you want it turned on for 7 days or forever.

I just did this, I can confirm that turn on indefinitely option exists. If it works like they say it works? 🤷‍♀️

I selected it when I turned this on today, I can check back in 8 days and let you know if it turned off

I just did it. After the 24 hour timer you have to answer a question - turn this on for 7 days or turn it on forever. If you turn it on Forever its one off. I assume if you do t for 7 days only you have to go thru the 24 hour waiting period again if you want to turn it on again.

Something else that I only found out from comments on another thread about this is that once you start the 24 hour timer, you have to allow unverified apps within one hour after the timer stops. If you miss this one hour window you have to wait a full 24 hours again. And it will not give a notification when the 24 hours is up, you need to set your own alarm.

EDIT: found the thread where others are talking about having to wait an additional 24 hours after missing the one hour window https://lemmy.world/post/51966349/25850937

To clarify - the one hour window is how much time you have to turn on the setting after waiting the 24 hour timer. As in, you have one hour to push this button. If you miss this window to turn the setting on, you have to request to turn it on again and it resets the 24 hour timer.

Once you turn the setting on you can select the option to turn it on forever.

no its a timer tied to the setting, its a countdown, it does not look at the date.
