Sound

Guided uses your device speaker for each step (after you start). Beeps-only keeps timer tones. Silent is visual + mirror only — good in quiet spaces. URL can set ?guidance=silent (or full, cues_only).

Timed steps: Space start/pause · next step (next is only after each hold when "Allow skipping steps" is off) · Esc pause.
