Could you provide a video recording with it? I've tested it on different phones with Android 10 (also Xiaomi), 13 and 14, and it's always working properly. Sometimes notification appears after a while, but the timer works in a background.

Here you are. It may well be device specific. Please note that when a timer is deleted the other parameters are not and become default for new timers. I don't know if that is intended.
