Sleep timers automatically turn the music off after a certain amount of time has passed, so if you set a sleep timer for 60 minutes, the device will automatically shut off after 60 minutes as you fall asleep. On the Amazon Echo, the device itself doesn’t shut off completely , but any music or other audio will automatically stop playing.
Setting a sleep timer is insanely easy: all you have to say is “Alexa, set a sleep timer for 30 minutes” (or however long you want it to last). Once 30 minutes has passed , the music, podcast, audiobook, or other sound will stop playing.

Why is my Alexa not playing music?
One issue that could be causing the music to stop playing on the Amazon device is Wi-Fi connectivity. There are a number of ways to improve Wi-Fi connectivity when music buffers or does not play. If there are several other devices connected to the Wi-Fi, the Echo, Dot, or other Alexa devices might be experiencing congestion.
You don’t have to manually set it up in your Echo as it automatically detects the subscription without installing the Amazon Music app. Issuing commands such as ‘Alexa, play the xyz song’ should play the requested track. But if the Echo isn’t playing any song from Amazon Music, no need to fret.
This begs the question “Why won’t Alexa play iHeartRadio?”
The most usefull answer is; if there are problems when playing music on other devices, then the Amazon device is not at fault. If the music stops playing while listening to IHeart. Radio, try switching to Tune. In to see if the problem persists. If not, then the Alexa device is again probably not at fault .
