My machines are in a disconnected garage. There's no hearing the beep. And the wash time varies due to load size, to the point that the estimate on the screen isn't very accurate, so seeing a timer isn't great either.

I have never bothered to connect them to wifi yet, though. But a phone notification would have is uses.

That makes sense. My inlaws have theirs hooked to alexa and the machines are the next room over from their living room. Seems like a little over kill.

a kitchen timer or a timer on your phone will be close enough. set it for your own estimate based on experience when you get back in the house from stuffing a load in the washer.
